FEV1 \< 50% or predicted postoperative FEV1 \< 40% 2. DLCO \< 50% or predicted postoperative DLCO \< 40% 3. Exercise induced maximal exercise oxygen consumption M VO2 \< 15 mL/kg/min 4. High-risk cardiac disease: Any one of the following: * Poor left ventricular function (defined as an ejection fraction of \<=20%) * Unstable coronary syndromes (unstable angina or severe angina Canadian class III or IV). * Severe valvular disease (critical valvular stenosis), * Recent myocardial infarction (\< 1 month), * Significant arrhythmia defined by one of the following: High-grade AV block, Symptomatic ventricular arrhythmias in the presence of underlying heart disease, Supraventricular arrhythmias with uncontrolled ventricular rate MINOR CRITERIA: 1. Age \> 75 2. Pulmonary hypertension (defined as a pulmonary artery systolic pressure greater than 40 mm Hg) 3. Oxygen requirement (using the Medicare criteria for home oxygen requirements \[i.e., room air oxygen saturation of 88% or less\]) 4. Resting or exercise arterial pO2 ≤ 55 mm Hg OR SpO2 ≤ 88%. 5. pCO2 \> 45 mm Hg 6. Congestive heart failure (any three of the following must be documented: dyspnea, peripheral edema, chest x-ray with interstitial edema or cardiomegaly, rales, or congestion) 7. Moderately depressed left ventricular function (defined as an ejection fraction of 21-40% or less) 8. Severe cerebral (with CVA or recent TIA) or severe peripheral vascular disease 9. Diabetes Mellitus with severe organ damage such as ESRD, Blindness, Vascular disease. 10. Severe end organ damage from other causes resulting in ESRD, cirrhosis of the liver or vascular disease 11. FEV1 51%-60% or predicted postoperative FEV1 41-50% 12. DLCO 51-60% or predicted postoperative DLCO 41-50% 13. Modified Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale ≥ grade 3 8. Females of child-bearing age must be using a reliable form of birth control. 9. The patient must have a PET-CT scan within 8 weeks of registration. 10. The patient must provide a signed and dated written informed consent PRIOR to registration and prior to undergoing any study-related procedures. 11. The patient must provide written authorization to allow the use and disclosure of their protected health information. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Excluding the primary cancer targeted for this treatment, the patient has a prior history of cancer (within the last 5 years) or concurrent cancer other than basal cell or squamous skin cancer. 2. Visible endobronchial lesion seen in the trachea, carina, major bronchus, lobar or segmental bronchus on bronchoscopy or microscopic disease detected in the trachea, carina, major bronchus, lobar or segmental bronchus. 3. The patient's weight exceeds the tolerances of the institution's imaging and CyberKnife platform/couch. 4. The patient has received thoracic radiation therapy in the same field as the planned treatment area in the past. 5. The patient has completed chemotherapy within less than 30 days of treatment. 6. T2: Tumor size \> 5 cm, T3 tumors (except T3 by virtue of chest wall invasion and ≤ 5 cm), T4 tumors. Presence of N1, N2 or N3 disease per previously described criteria would be excluded. 7. Pancoast tumors would be excluded. 8. Current distant metastatic disease (M1) (preferably biopsy proven). 9. The patient is a female with child-bearing potential who refuses to take a pregnancy test prior to treatment. 10. The patient is pregnant or a female who is nursing an infant. 11. The patient is planning on undergoing systemic therapy within 2 weeks after the last fraction of radiation 12. The patient has an active systemic or pulmonary infection.
