Summary

This study looks at whether taking extra CT or MRI scans during proton therapy can help doctors adjust the treatment plan for children with solid tumors or Hodgkin's lymphoma. About 100 children will get weekly or every-other-week scans to check if the tumor or healthy organs have changed shape. If needed, the radiation plan will be updated to keep the tumor covered and protect normal tissues. The goal is to learn how often these adjustments are needed and which cancers change the most during treatment.
