Functional Lung Avoidance SPECT-guided Radiation Therapy of Lung Cancer
Functional Lung Avoidance SPECT-guided (ASPECT) Radiation Therapy for Lung Cancer Patients: Phase II Randomised Clinical Trial
University of Aarhus
90 participants
Dec 1, 2021
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
Study aims to determine if functional lung avoidance based on perfusion single photon emission (SPECT)/CT scan, improves toxicity outcomes for patients with advanced lung cancer undergoing chemo-radiotherapy. Functional avoidance implies a dose plan that takes functional distribution in the lung into account, and avoids highly functional lung volumes sparing them from radiation.
