About this trial
To learn whether giving spinal stereotactic radiosurgery (SRSS) that uses a more advanced imaging scan method called Magnetic Resonance imaging with a Linear Accelerator (MR-LINAC) during treatment will lead to improved responses to treatment and better quality of life. SRSS is radiation therapy given to the area around your spine.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers

Candidate for spine SRS/SBRT as determined by treating Radiation Oncologist or Multidisciplinary Spine Conference review
Maximum of 3 contiguous vertebral levels involved with metastasis in the spine to be irradiated allowed
Disqualifiers
Patients with highly radiosensitive histologies likely to respond to conventional radiation therapy alone (ie lymphoma, multiple myeloma, etc)
