First seen Jan 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 10, 2026 · Updated 17 times
Summary
This study tests whether a CPAP device (a mask that gently blows air into the lungs) can reduce tumor movement during radiation therapy for lung cancer. About 30 people will be enrolled to compare CPAP with a standard breath-holding technique. The goal is to see if CPAP helps keep the tumor still and expands the lungs, potentially making treatment more accurate.
