Evaluation of Technological Innovation in Radiotherapy

Prospective cohort study of patients receiving standard-care radiotherapy is paramount to a better understanding of radiation effects and longterm outcomes. The primary objective is to determine the feasibility of establishing infrastructure to systematically collect clinical data, patient-reported outcomes, and imaging data from daily radiotherapy practice. Secondary objectives are to provide a control cohort for comparative effectiveness research of investigational interventions through a cmRCT design; compare imaging features with clinical outcomes; understand dose-effect relationships; quantify imaging quality metrics.
