Scientists test Real-Time tumor targeting for advanced radiation

NCT ID NCT06310655

Summary

This small pilot study tested whether doctors could safely adjust proton radiation treatment plans in real-time while a patient is on the treatment table. The goal was to see if this daily adaptation method is practical and safe for treating solid tumors, aiming to better target the cancer while sparing healthy tissue. Researchers enrolled 10 patients to gather data for a potential larger future trial.
