Summary

This study tests a special PET scan probe called [68Ga]CBP8 to see if it can detect early signs of radiation damage in lung and pancreatic cancer patients. About 72 adults who are getting radiation therapy will have scans before and 3-6 months after treatment. The goal is to find tissue injury early, which could help prevent long-term scarring.
