Brain cancer breakthrough? frequent scans may let doctors adjust radiation on the fly
NCT ID NCT04771806
Summary
This study is testing whether taking more frequent MRI scans during radiation and chemotherapy treatment for aggressive brain tumors (high-grade gliomas) can help doctors see how the tumor is changing. By spotting changes earlier, doctors might be able to adjust the radiation treatment plan in real-time to better target the tumor while sparing healthy brain tissue. The goal is to gather knowledge to see if this 'adaptive' approach leads to better treatment accuracy and outcomes compared to the standard method.
