Abstract:
In a method and magnetic resonance (MR) apparatus for monitoring a radiation therapy of a patient, first MR image data are acquired with a quantitative magnetic resonance method before an irradiation of a target area of the patient, and second MR image data are acquired with the quantitative magnetic resonance method after the irradiation of the target area of the patient. The first MR image data and the second MR image data are compared, and output information is generated on the basis of a result of the comparison.
