Sponsor's own description

This study is being done to help further understand how MR-guided adaptive RT in conjunction with the Integrated Magnetic Resonance Linear Accelerator (MRL) can improve patient outcomes. This study will include participants who will be receiving radiotherapy using the MRL machine to target their cancer more precisely. Participants will be asked to have a few extra MR scans taken during their RT planning and to complete a few quality of life questionnaires.
