Brief Summary
This study is applicable to patients undergoing lower lung or abdomen stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) treatment. The purpose of the ACE 01 study is to identify if, the volume of healthy tissue within the treatment area and therefore subsequent side effects, can be reduced by using a commercially available abdominal compression device to minimise breathing related movement. The secondary aim will be to assess patient compliance and comfort of thedevice. This will be assessed by asking the patient to complete a 'patient comfort questionnaire'. In addition the radiographers will be asked to complete a 'satisfaction questionnaire' to determine ease and reproducibility of use.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
To measure change in treatment volume between freebreathing and abdominal compression scans
Organ motion will then be quantified using Eclipse. This facilitates a direct comparison to determine the efficacy of the compression belt. Patients with reduction in organ motion will be treated wearing the abdominal compression belt. The alignment scale will be recorded to facilitate accurate placement each fraction. compression belt

Secondary Outcomes (1)
Reported patient feedback regarding device comfort and compliance of use.

Study participants
EXPERIMENTALPatients will be dual scanned; one with 4D-CT in free-breathing and one wearing the compression belt.Organ motion will then be quantified using Eclipse. This facilitates a direct comparison to determine the efficacy of the compression belt. Patients with reduction in organ motion will be treated wearing the abdominal compression belt. The alignment scale will be recorded to facilitate accurate placement each fraction. The belt will be inflated to a tolerable level by the patient and recorded for consistency each fraction. The position of the belt will be referenced to the anterior and lateral tattoos to ensure accurate and consistent placement each fraction.
Interventions
The abdominal compression belt system is provided free of charge from CDR systems, Canada. The belt has specifically been chosen from other similar devices commercially available as it is independent of other immobilisation devices and can be used with the patient located within a full body vacbag as per current immobilisation position.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Radiological or Histologically confirmed lower lobe lung cancer or histologically confirmed metastatic of primary cancer in abdominal organs including liver, pancreas, adrenal which meets criteria for SABR treatment.
- Aged 18 years or over
- Capacity to understand research proposal and give informed consent
You may not qualify if:
- Tumour sites excluding those previously defined
- Rib metastases
- Stoma if situated underneath belt
- Patients unable to tolerate the abdominal compression belt
- Patients with existing abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA)
