New tech aims to zap lung cancer more precisely

NCT ID NCT04310891

Summary

This study is testing a new technology designed to track lung tumors during radiation therapy without needing to implant physical markers near the tumor. The goal is to see if this 'markerless' tracking is accurate enough to guide radiation beams in real time. Five patients with early-stage lung cancer will have their standard radiation treatment monitored with this experimental imaging system to see how well it works.
