New MRI method could make lung cancer treatment more precise
NCT ID NCT06322329
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether dynamic MRI can better track lung tumor movement during breathing compared to standard CT scans. 150 patients receiving stereotactic body radiotherapy for lung tumors will get an extra MRI scan. If MRI proves more accurate, it could help doctors plan radiation treatments that hit tumors more precisely and spare healthy tissue.
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 planning for lung cancer, reducing damage to healthy tissue while ensuring tumors are fully treated.
- 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.
