Twelve million new cases of cancer will need radiotherapy by 2035 using our current techniques. A million lives per year could be saved if they all received treatment. MRI will identify new biomarkers that will lead to better adaption to the biological heterogeneity of cancer. MRI guidance will open up new indications for primary tumours such as the liver and pancreas. It offers the chance to prolong and improve life for patients with metastatic disease.
