Table 2 Comparison of the absolute percentages of the CT and MRI pneumonitis score at 3, 6 and 12 months after the end of treatment. After 3 and 12 months there was a very good correlation. However, there was only a moderate correlation after 6 months. Overall, the score on MRI tends to be slightly lower than in the corresponding CT. Absolute frequencies are written in parenthesis behind the corresponding percentage value
