研究组 & 干预措施
Treatment (radiation therapy)
This is a survey study to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of an affordable, $400 flat rate, same-day consultation, simulation, and delivery of a single fraction of palliative radiation therapy for patients with symptomatic bony metastatic disease who are currently enrolled in hospice. Treatment planning and delivery of palliative radiotherapy will utilize "standard of care" techniques. A physician survey of feasibility will be conducted on the treatment day. Patient surveys will conducted on the day of treatment and at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 2 months, 3 months, 4 months, 5 months, and 6 months after treatment.
干预措施: Radiation Therapy (Radiation)
