Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
RATIONALE: Comparing results of diagnostic procedures, such as computed tomography scan (CT scan), done before and after radiation therapy to help detect movement of the esophagus may help doctors plan the best treatment. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is using CT scan to help detect movement of the esophagus in patients undergoing radiation therapy to the chest.
