Arms

  • Experimental: Diagnostic (T2* MRI, blood sample collection)
    Patients undergo T2\* MRI over 10 minutes and blood sample collection during radiation therapy simulation, weekly during radiation therapy, and at 1- and 3- months post-radiation therapy in the absence of unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo standard MRI throughout the study.

Primary Outcome Measure

Relationship between T2 (observed)-weighted imaging (T2*) magnetic resonance imaging relation time and dimeric transferrin receptor expression [ Time Frame: Up to 3 months post-radiation therapy ]
