Summary

This study tests a new computer program that reduces blurring in CT scans used during lung cancer radiation therapy. The goal is to help doctors better locate tumors and track small markers placed in the lungs. About 17 adults with lung cancer who are already scheduled for radiation therapy will take part. The study focuses on improving imaging accuracy, not on directly treating the disease.
