What this study is about
This trial is testing whether low doses of radiation therapy to the lungs can reduce inflammation in people with COVID-19 who are having trouble breathing. The treatment uses X-ray beams from a machine to target the lungs and lessen inflammation, potentially helping patients breathe without needing a ventilator.
Simplified from trial records by PatientMatch.
