First seen Feb 25, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 14 times
Summary
This study tests whether using a SPECT scan to guide radiation therapy can reduce lung damage in people with advanced lung cancer. About 90 patients receiving chemo-radiation will be randomly assigned to standard or SPECT-guided planning. The goal is to see if avoiding highly functional lung areas lowers breathing problems and improves quality of life.
