Study Summary
Objectives: * To determine the safety of fiducial implantation. * To determine the extent/rate of migration of radio-opaque fiducials placed in lung tumors and adjacent normal tissue. * To compare real-time portal imaging-based fiducial tracking with measurement of three-dimensional motion by four-dimensional CT scanning to determine how many fiducials are needed to track a tumor. * To determine if intra-fractional lung tumor motion changes during a course of treatment, and when during the treatment this occurs. * To correlate the position of internal fiducials with the position of the external patient surface during respiration. * To quantify the residual motion of the clinical target volume during radiotherapy gated using external fiducials. * To verify the adequacy of the treatment portal margins in encompassing the residual motion of the clinical target volume. * To determine if radio-opaque fiducial placement adjacent to the trachea (which does not move) can reduce daily setup inaccuracies, and so spare normal tissue. * To determine the motion of hilar adenopathy (if any), and whether it correlates with motion of the primary tumor.
