Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Amount of inter- and intra-physician contouring variability on 4D CT, ABC CT, free breathing CT, and free breathing and ABC CBCT
A two sided t-test with 5% level of significance will be used.
up to 1 week
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Magnitude and distribution of target and organ at risk volume variations between the different imaging modalities
up to 1 week
Dosimetric changes related to contouring variations for tumor and normal tissue
up to 1 week
Study Arms (1)
Diagnostic (imaging studies)
EXPERIMENTALPatients undergo conventional free breathing CT, 4D CT, ABC CT, ABC CBCT, and free breathing CBCT before undergoing radiation therapy.
Interventions
Undergo conventional free breathing CT
Undergo 4D CT
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Measurable disease on CT scan
- Patients with lung cancer visible on CT who are scheduled to receive external beam radiation treatment will be eligible for this study
- Patients must be able to perform ABC procedures
You may not qualify if:
- Patients requiring continuous supplemental oxygen due to the requirement of spirometry during all imaging studies
- No vulnerable populations will be enrolled (prisoners, children, pregnant females or institutionalized individuals)
- Women of childbearing potential will undergo a pregnancy test
