NCT04176900 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2023-10-02

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study compares two types of 3D-printed skin bolus (rigid and flexible) used to optimize the treatment of tumors/cancers involving the skin. Each patient will have both types of bolus made, with each will be used on alternating days. The goal is to determine if one type of bolus provides a better fit and thus radiotherapy plan, the ease of use of each type of bolus, and patient reported feedback.
