This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
Right now, brain tumor patients receiving radiation therapy wear a tight plastic mask to keep their head still during treatment. This study is testing whether a new camera-based positioning system can replace the mask, making treatment more comfortable while keeping it just as accurate. The cameras track your position in real time, so doctors can pause the radiation beam if you move and restart it once you're back in the right position.
Many patients find the immobilization mask uncomfortable and anxiety-provoking, even though it's currently the standard way to ensure radiation hits the tumor accurately. This study wants to see if modern camera technology can provide the same safety and precision without the mask, improving comfort for brain tumor patients.

You will participate in two simulated radiation sessions without a mask—one during your first week of treatment and one during your last week. During these sessions, researchers will use cameras to track how stable your head and body position stays without the mask, and the system will practice pausing and restarting the radiation beam as needed. You will also fill out questionnaires describing how you felt during both masked and mask-free sessions.
