摘要
Radiation therapy (RT) is an important treatment modality for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and has a wide spectrum of applications and indications. Radiotherapy can be used with curative or palliative intent, alone or in combination with another modality-either in sequence or concurrently. In this manuscript, we review the utilization of RT in the treatment of NSCLC.
