This study proposes 6 anatomic groupings which each can be defined similarly as the "head and neck" grouping above. These 6 groupings are: (1) Head and Neck, (2) Thoracic not including lung parenchymal, (3) Hepatobiliary and other non-hepatobiliary abdominal tumors, (4) Retroperitoneal, (5) Pelvic, and (6) Distributed or orphan. The study is designed to gather essential imaging data on the RefleXion Medical Radiotherapy System (RMRS) to validate the accuracy of FDG-directed BgRT, also known as SCINTIX therapy, in various anatomical groupings. Study subjects will go through the entire SCINTIX treatment workflow, including radiopharmaceutical administration and live PET imaging, but without turning on the treatment beam. Collected data will be used offline to generate the set of machine instructions that would have been used during treatment delivery to calculate the "emulated" BgRT dose distribution, i.e., what the delivered dose would have been had the treatment beam been turned on during the session. The 6th category ("Distributed or orphan") is meant to capture tumor types that can manifest across anatomies and/or for which utilization of stereotactic radiotherapy for treatment is relatively rare, with lymphomas being a prototypical example.
Ablative radiotherapy has become an integral tool for the treatment of primary tumors and metastatic lesions across the human body. Because ablative radiotherapy techniques like stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) involve delivering high doses of radiotherapy in a few fractions, they have the potential to cause serious injury to normal tissues near the target lesion. Therefore, a standard concern for radiation oncologists is to conformally and precisely deliver ablative radiotherapy while maximally sparing surrounding organs and tissues. This goal is relevant throughout the anatomy and pertains as much to tumors in the head and neck as it does to those in the pelvis.
Biology-guided radiotherapy is a novel radiotherapy delivery mechanism that achieves precision by aiming beamlets of external radiotherapy by tracking PET emissions that originate from the target after it has taken up an injected radiotracer. Because the radiotherapy beamlets are guided to the tumor in real-time, this technology holds strong promise for reducing margins around the target and thereby reducing normal tissue toxicities.

|---|---|---|
| Emulated BgRT Delivery accuracy | The percent of radiotherapy fractions where the emulated BgRT dose distribution is shown to be consistent with the approved BgRT treatment plan (i.e., 95% of DVHDelivered points for the BTZ and OAR fall within bounded DVH of the approved BgRT plan). | Assessed for each emulated delivery through study completion, an average of 2 years |

Inclusion Criteria:
Age greater than 21 years.
A new or prior diagnosis of biopsy-proven cancer.
At least one active non-osseous primary or metastatic tumor that is located in one of the assigned anatomical groupings and dispositioned to undergo 3-5 fractions of SBRT. A lesion is considered active if viable malignancy is confirmed either by biopsy or by diagnostic imaging (as interpreted by the multidisciplinary care team).
Target tumor size ≥2cm and ≤5cm.
Target tumor is discrete and assessed by investigator to meet diagnostic PET screening criteria for BgRT candidacy:
ECOG Performance Status 0-3.
Must have completed any other oncologic therapies at least 15 days prior to planned start of study procedures (preferably 30 days) and must have no plans to initiate systemic therapy until after study follow up is complete -OR- must be recorded by physician to have an active lesion that is unresponsive to ongoing systemic therapy.
Females of childbearing potential should have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 14 days prior to initiation of study scans.
Exclusion Criteria:
Clinically significant blood glucose abnormalities that preclude a satisfactory FDG PET/CT scan.
Lung parenchymal and bone target tumors
At the physician's discretion regarding expected target motion, FDG-avid structures not intended for radiation are within:
Known allergy to FDG.
Known psychiatric or substance abuse disorder that would interfere with conduct of the study.
Pregnant, breast-feeding or expecting to conceive during the study.
Patient weight exceeding the weight limit outlined per user manual.
Patients with pacemakers and other implantable devices deemed at high risk by the treating physician for complications secondary to radiotherapy, according to institutional guidelines and published guidelines (e.g. AAPM task group-203).
Active inflammatory bowel disease, scleroderma, or other disorder deemed by the treating physician to put the patient at risk for excess toxicity in the setting of external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) or FDG injection.
