time lag after radio therapy

I had 4 x 5 Greys radiotherapy on my spine L2 thru Sacral in September. I gather radiotherapy disrupts DNA of cancer tissue so that when they try to divide they fail to and die.

How many months after x-ray treatment should I aim for MRI to see the effect of radiotherapy?
