New scan combo aims to pinpoint moving lung tumors for sharper radiation

NCT ID NCT07398209

Summary

This study aims to improve the precision of radiation therapy for lung cancer by better tracking how tumors move when patients breathe. Researchers will combine a special MRI scan taken before treatment with X-ray images taken during treatment to create a more accurate motion model. The goal is to help radiation target the tumor more precisely while better sparing nearby healthy organs.
