Intervention name:
4D-CT pre-treatment scan
Description:
Undergo pre-treatment 4D-CT study for treatment planning External Beam Radiation:
standard fractionation (2Gy per day) or stereotactic body radiation therapy Evaluation:
Repeat 4D-CT study at 3 months and 6 months post-treatment
Arm group label:

Other name:
planning External Beam Radiation,
Other name:
4D-CT study
Summary:
Eligible lung cancer patients: Undergo pre-treatment 4D-CT study for treatment planning
External Beam Radiation: standard fractionation (2Gy per day) or stereotactic body
radiation therapy
Evaluation: Repeat 4D-CT study at 3 months and 6 months post-treatment
Primary objectives: To assess pre-treatment global and focal lung strain and correlate
with changes post-treatment
Detailed description:
The study will be a prospective, non-randomized, single center, trial to assess and
quantify lung strain using four dimensional CT (4D-CT) treatment planning scans. Patients
with newly diagnosed lung cancer will be planned using 4D-CT to assess lung and tumor
motion. Standard radiation treatment plans will to delivered based on tumor stage.
Patients will be reassessed both clinically and radiographically using 4D-CT imaging at 3
months and 6 months post-treatment. Following the initial imaging time points, standard
surveillance will be employed with clinical assessment and imaging at 3 month intervals
for the first 2 years post-treatment.
