Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The study is looking at whether the Live View System (LVS) camera on the end of the Varian Halcyon treatment couch can be used for breath hold gating in comparison to the wall mounted real time position management (RPM) system that is currently being used. One treatment for each patient will be observed using both both the LVS system and the RPM system.

The LVS and RPM system both monitor the motion of a marker block placed on the patients chest. The main difference is that the LVS is obtaining the motion from the couch mounted video camera (otherwise known as the Liver View camera) whereas the RPM system uses a wall mounted dedicated infrared camera to obtain the patients breathing motion.

Data will be collected from patients that are already being treated using the RPM system as well as other patients who are receiving radiation therapy treatment.

For those patients where the RPM system is already being used in the patients treatment, data will be collected on both the RPM and LVS system during their treatment and will not take any additional time for the patient. Patients will be monitored for approximately 5 to 10 minutes for each patient.

If breath-hold-gating is not required as a part of the patients treatment, this cohort of patients will be asked to participate in a session separate from their treatment where their breathing can be monitored over a short period of time, providing data from both the LVS and RPM systems.
