ProCaLung is a national registry collecting radiation treatment parameters of patients having lung cancer that extends to mediastinal lymph nodes. The project includes a peer review activity. The purpose of this public health program is similar to an audit whose objective is to promote quality of radiation oncology in Belgium. It is run by Institut Jules Bordet on behalf of the College of Physicians for Radiotherapy Centers of the Belgian Health Federal Public Service, in close collaboration with the Belgian Cancer Registry. All Belgian radiotherapy centers are invited to participate in ProCaLung but their participation is not mandatory. The centers who accept to participate show a commitment to quality assurance as the radiotherapy-treatment-related parameters they generate will be analyzed to establish national statistics. It includes a peer-review process based on international guidelines for mediastinal nodes delineations given for informational purposes. The public interest program also collects technical parameters as they were planned and delivered during the course of chest radiation treatment. This includes the delineations of tumors, nodes and chest organs on simulation-CT images, PET/CT images, chest-CT images and the clinical information related to the lung cancer. Results/statistics will be published at the end of the project.

descriptive statistics for quality assurance (no sample size needed)
* Dosimetry \[Non-inferiority, comparison of groups by final review group\]: Mean Lung Dose, Lung V20Gy, Lung V30Gy, Mean Heart Dose, Esophagus V60Gy. * Waiting times, use of contrast-enhanced CT, ITV, overall treatment time, proportion of treatments with recommended organs at risk delineated, radiological treatment completion rate, chemotherapy (and immunotherapy) completion rate, use of static/rotational intensity modulation, availability of data in the electronic health record.
