This trial will investigate the feasibility of the Markerless Tumour Tracking technology.
Markerless Tumour Tracking will be integrated with existing treatment machines to provide real-time monitoring of tumour motion during treatment delivery. Eligible patients will be implanted with fiducial markers, which act as the ground truth for evaluating the accuracy of Markerless Tumour Tracking. The patients will undergo the current standard of care radiotherapy, with the exception that kilovoltage x-ray images will be acquired continuously during treatment delivery to enable Markerless Tumour Tracking.

RECRUITINGMarkerless Tumour Tracking is feasible for motion-adaptive lung cancer radiotherapy
This will be measured by 90% of the treatment fractions achieving: 1. Continuous on-line tracking with no software failure; 2. Agreement between markerless and marker-based tracking within 3 mm in each direction (left-right, superior-inferior, anterior-posterior) for at least 80% of the beam-on time as assessed in off-line analyses.
