Abstract
The design of the 1.5 T Elekta Unity MR-Linac limits the craniocaudal (CC) radiation field length at the isocentre to 22 cm. A 1 cm margin in all directions is recommended for plan adaptation to the daily anatomy and to correct for set-up errors due to a static couch. This reduces the radiation field further to 20 cm in the CC direction. A restricted CC field length may influence the selection and absolute number of head and neck cancer (HNC)...
