Summary

This study is testing whether a very powerful 7T MRI machine can find tiny brain metastases earlier than standard 1.5T or 3T MRI scans. It involves 20 adults with small-cell lung cancer who have chosen not to receive preventive brain radiation. The goal is to see if the 7T MRI can detect these small tumors sooner, which could lead to earlier treatment.
