Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The overall, broad objective of this study is to pilot the BSD technique. The specific purpose of this particular study is to generate pilot data to validate several crucial steps of the BSD technique, in particular steps 1, 2, and 4. Radiation treatments will proceed per standard of care, and will not be modified in any way during this protocol. This study is a non-treatment protocol.
