About This Webinar

How did Italy’s frontline, Gemelli ART, respond to the COVID-19 pandemic? Hear how they adapted patient care and departmental procedures in radiation oncology to reduce patient encounters with the hospital system, leveraging MRIdian to offer fewer fractions and ablative doses in a time when surgery and chemo were not available to all. Join us to learn how SBRT and MRIdian are reshaping the future of cancer care in a rapidly changing landscape. Q&A will follow the discussion.
