Breast cancer is a condition where abnormal cells in the breast grow uncontrollably, forming a tumor. The exact causes of breast cancer are not fully understood, but factors such as genetics, lifestyle, and hormonal changes may play a role. Common symptoms include a lump or thickening in the breast or underarm area, changes in breast size or shape, and nipple discharge. Diagnosis typically involves a combination of imaging tests, such as mammograms and ultrasound, and biopsy to examine the tissue. Treatment options vary depending on the type and stage of cancer but may include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, or targeted therapy.

MR Linac radiotherapy is an advanced form of radiation therapy used to treat various cancers. It combines real-time magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with radiation therapy, allowing for more precise targeting of tumors while sparing surrounding healthy tissues. The use of MRI guidance enables the radiation oncologist to visualize the tumor and surrounding structures in real-time, allowing for adjustments to be made during treatment to ensure accurate delivery of radiation. MR Linac radiotherapy offers several advantages over traditional radiation therapy techniques, including improved tumor targeting, reduced radiation exposure to healthy tissues, and potentially fewer side effects.
