GCC 2546- Motion Management (NCT07398209)

Combining 4D MRI and 4DCT for Personalized Volumetric Motion Monitoring in Lung Radiation Therapy

🟢 Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic 📋 Clinical Research Protocol Sponsor: University of Maryland, Baltimore

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The purpose of this study is to assess a real time motion tracking of lung tumors and important organs next to the tumor while breathing during a participant's radiation treatment. This will be assessed through a four-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan before starting your radiation treatment and x-ray fluoroscopy images that are taken during radiation

Who can join: To join this study, participants generally need to meet the listed inclusion criteria (6 items) and avoid the listed exclusions (4 items).

Location: University of Maryland Greenebaum Cancer Center — Baltimore, Maryland
