Summary
This is a research study using Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (GCSF) as a bone marrow
stimulating agent for imaging to guide radiation treatment planning. G-CSF is a type of
growth factor. Growth factors are proteins made in the body. G-CSF is a type of growth factor
that makes the bone marrow produce white blood cells to reduce the risk of infection after
