Summary
RATIONALE: Image-guided radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells.
Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a lower dose of radiation directly to the tumor
may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well image-guided radiation
therapy works in treating patients with primary soft tissue sarcoma of the shoulder, arm,
hip, or leg.
