My RO was there at the beginning of each treatment, but was gone when I exited the MRI room. The Physicist was there the entire time as I recall. That would be a great question though...what is discussed or evaluated between the RO and the Physicist prior to treatment each time.

@beachguy , I don't know, but I would almost think everything was setup from the initial treatment. The machines and technicians are on a script and everything is on automatic. All the important work was done prior to my arrival to the first session. Not sure if the prostate changes shape or size during the sessions or not.
I felt the table move during one of my sessions as my innards must have moved while I was on the table, and one time they manually/physically changed me a bit during one session.
Wished I would have asked these questions while it was going on.
