I went to Dr. Nagar at MSK for a second opinion last year and decided to use him for treatment. He chose to use an Ethos machine for SBRT which doesn't have MRI guidance. Instead, it adapts treatment every day based on a real-time CT scan which shows if any of the organs have shifted and adjusts the radiation accordingly. My results were fine but I'm still curious as to the advantages of one machine to the other. I did have fiducials inserted which I don't believe are required for the machines with MRI guidance.
