Online plan adaptation at the MR-Linac increased treatment times and was associated with less favorable short-term patient-reported outcomes, yet it was delivered safely without compromising toxicity or oncologic outcomes. These results support adaptive MR-guided radiotherapy as a feasible and technically promising approach, while highlighting the need for further studies with validated PROMs and cost-benefit analyses to define its clinical value.
