Summary

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Patients with sarcoma on active chemotherapy/targeted therapy * Patients must have stable to mildly progressive disease or better on baseline assessment * Baseline measurement and follow-up measurement have to be performed on the same treatment for consistency. If patients with progressive disease are included into the study at baseline, follow-up measurement will be on a different treatment. Invariable, initiation of a new treatment, in the setting of progressive disease, lengthens oncology workflow which would affect the post measurement * Patients must have been on the same treatment for at least 6 weeks * Patients must have at least 3 prior imaging studies of the same body part/tracked lesion/area of interest separated by 6 weeks or more between studies * Patients should be continuing same therapy for the next 6-8 weeks * Patients must have plan for follow-up with imaging studies at MD Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC) while on therapy * Patients who are receiving therapy outside of MDACC but having their follow-up imaging at MDACC are eligible * \>= 18 years of age Exclusion Criteria: * Expected survival of less than 8 weeks * Patients with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 4 * Non- English-speaking patients and patients with cognitive impairment who cannot complete the questionnaire
