Axial, coronal, and sagittal view comparing conventional expansions (isotropic 8 mm, except 5 mm posterior) to the MRI-based delineation and expansion method. The extent of expansion into the bladder is less pronounced and expansion into the rectum is comparable to conventional expansions for this one representative case. PTV expansion into the rectum is variable depending on patient anatomy.

(Right) DVH of PTV comparison for plan optimized with MRI-based delineation and expansion method showing comparable coverage to conventional CT-expanded PTV.
