5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This study looks at the effects of a protocolized music therapy intervention on state anxiety for patients with cancer undergoing simulation for radiation therapy. Simulation, which is an imaging and diagnostic procedure, has been identified as producing significantly high levels of anxiety in many cancer patients.
