Liver volume changes after radiation therapy
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at whether radiation therapy changes the size of the liver over time. If you had radiation that included part or all of your liver, the researchers want to use your CT scans to see how it changed.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You had radiation therapy that included the liver, either as the main area treated or because the liver was near the treated area.
- You have CT scans from before and after your radiation that are clear and useful.
- You have information about your liver function and any side effects from treatment.
- You have not had major liver surgery between the two scans, and you do not have severe liver disease like cirrhosis (unless it was accounted for in the study analysis).

This study looks at how changes in liver size affect the planning and delivery of radiation therapy for cancers in the upper abdomen, such as pancreatic, bile duct, or liver cancer. It aims to improve treatment accuracy.
This study looks at how the main lung tumor shrinks or changes after a complete course of high-dose radiation in people with stage II or III lung cancer. It uses scans taken before and after treatment to track the results.
This trial studies how radiation therapy (SBRT) affects a DNA fragment in the blood called ctDNA in people with liver cancer. By tracking ctDNA changes, doctors hope to better understand how well the treatment is working and possibly predict outcomes earlier.
This trial studies how well the liver works after stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for cancer that spread to the liver. If you had this specific type of radiation in three large doses, you may help researchers learn more about liver recovery.
This study compares a standard radiation dose plan versus a plan that adjusts the dose based on how the tumor responds to radiation-related measurements. It aims to improve how well stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) treats liver cancer while keeping side effects manageable.
This study tests new blood tests and MRI scans to see how well your liver works during radiation therapy for liver cancer. It may help doctors better plan treatment and monitor your liver health.
