Summary

This study tests whether using CPAP or BiPAP breathing machines can reduce tumor movement during radiation therapy for lung cancer, esophageal cancer, or lymphoma. About 31 adults with advanced but treatable cancers will try these machines during treatment. The goal is to see if these devices help keep the tumor still, which could make radiation more precise and reduce side effects.
