Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to test a new technology for obtaining x-ray images of your treatment fields when you are positioned on the treatment machine, to determine whether this new system is as reliable and easy to use as conventional systems.. These so-called portal images are normally taken on a weekly basis, prior to your radiation treatment. The new portal imaging system to be tested is designed to produce better quality images than are currently achievable, but with no additional dose or added treatment time.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Obtain multiple (1-5) 3DCBIs on patients during the course of their radiation therapy treatments using a prototype megavoltage (MV) system and determine if the prototype imaging system is reliable and practical for routine clinical portal imaging.
conclusion of the study
Secondary Outcomes (2)
For some patients, in addition to obtaining 1-5 MV conebeam scans, obtain 1-2 conebeam scans using a new kilovoltage conebeam imaging system
conclusion of the study
Compare the quality and utility of the MV and kV conebeam systems.
