Summary

Cancer radiation treatment plans that employ lung functional avoidance methods require 3D maps that differentiate regions of healthy lung function from regions of functional compromised tissue to deliver sufficient dose to the tumor while preserving as much functioning lung as possible. Hyperpolarized xenon-129 MRI can provide maps of ventilatory function and gas exchange to the bloodstream. Improving treatment plans based on this novel imaging modality could reduce risk or severity of radiation pneumonitis and improve post-treatment quality of life.

Conditions

  • Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung

Interventions

COMBINATION_PRODUCT

Hyperpolarized xenon MRI

Patients with non-small cell lung cancer scheduled for radiation therapy willing to take part in this study will undergo hyperpolarized xenon MRI at several time points prior and post RT. Images will be used to determine radiation treatment maps for functional lung avoidance. Reported adverse events caused by radiation induced lung injury and post-RT changes in the lung function will be compared to standard-of-care.
