NCT ID NCT07450560

Summary

This study is testing a new way to watch proton beam therapy as it happens. Researchers are using a special type of PET scan to see exactly where the proton radiation goes inside a patient's body during treatment for solid tumors. The goal is to make this advanced cancer treatment more precise by ensuring the radiation hits only the tumor.
