Study Description
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to develop blood tests and urine tests that can tell doctors how much radiation a person has been exposed to. Doctors know how much radiation patients are exposed to in certain medical situations. An example of this would be radiation treatment for cancer. Radiation treatment machines are programmed to give exact doses of radiation.
Detailed Description: MSKCC patients undergoing TBI as part of a hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) will have blood drawn and urine collected for use in the validation and refinement of new methods for rapid high-throughput radiation biodosimetry. These blood and urine samples will be collected before, and at defined times after TBI. Blood sampling will occur in the same manner that it does during routine patient care during HSCT.
