简要总结
This research aims to investigate the correlation between tumor temperature difference and biological factors, such as size, metabolism, treatment response, and tumor aggressiveness.
In addition, normal tissue response to adjuvant radiation therapy in treated organs following surgery, will be evaluated.
详细描述
During radiation session, the investigators would evaluate the changes that will be detected by thermal imaging and correlate them with visible side effects as well as with known tumor biology factors and skin-tumor distance.

结局指标
主要结局
Measurement of IR : Infra-Red radiation emitted at wavelengths 0.8-1nm
时间窗: Before the first fraction of radiation and every 5 fraction until the end of radiation therapy, approximately 4-5 weeks.
Mathematical analysis of the thermic image
次要结局
- Dermal side effects during radiation therapy using CTCAE v4.0(Before the first fraction of radiation and every 5 fraction until the end of radiation therapy, approximately 4-5 weeks.)
- US/CT scans(The tumor size in cubic cm will be mesured prior to first fraction of radiation, and 2 weeks following the end of radiation session. Time for final evaluation: approximately 6-7 weeks.)
