Abstract:
1. A system for radiation therapy with image monitoring, comprising: a magnetic resonance device configured to generate magnetic resonance images of an examination object of a patient for image monitoring of the examination object of the patient located in an examination volume of the magnetic resonance device; a statically-mounted exposure device, comprising a hardware component, that exposes the examination object in the examination volume to therapeutic beams emitted from said hardware component; a patient support configured to vertically support the patient in an upright position and configured to cause the examination object to be rotated, relative to the magnetic resonance device and to the exposure device, with said patient in said upright position around a vertically proceeding rotation axis; said magnetic resonance device comprising a magnet, which participates in generation of said magnetic resonance images by generating a static magnetic field, said magnet being configured to surround or enclose at least a portion of said hardware component of said exposure device and at least a portion of said examination object with said hardware component in said static magnetic field; and said magnet of said magnetic resonance device comprising a bore in which said examination volume is located, and said hardware component being located in said bore.
