Video

This video reviews results of a randomized trial comparing intensity modulated radiation therapy vs passively scattered proton therapy for locally advanced non–small-cell lung cancer.

In this video, Zhongxing Liao, MD, of MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas, reviews results of a randomized trial that compared intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) vs passively scattered proton therapy in patients with locally advanced non–small-cell lung cancer.
