Can dynamic MRI make lung cancer radiation safer and more accurate?
NCT ID NCT06322329
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 20, 2026 · Updated 42 times
Summary
This study tests whether a special MRI scan can track lung tumor movement during breathing better than the standard CT scan. Researchers will compare both scans in 150 people receiving radiation therapy for lung cancer. If the MRI proves more accurate, it could help doctors plan treatment with smaller safety margins, sparing healthy tissue while still hitting the tumor.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Dynamic MRI scan
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to more precise radiotherapy for lung cancer, reducing damage to healthy tissue while better targeting tumors.
What could go wrong
This is an early observational study, not a treatment trial. The new MRI method may not prove better than current CT scans, and results may not apply to all patients.
