Abstract
The role of radiotherapy in the management of lung cancer is growing in magnitude and significance. Modern radiotherapy planning and delivery systems allow more precise delivery of higher doses of ionizing radiation to desired tumor volumes with preferential sparing of sensitive uninvolved tissues. This provides a hope of cure for the patient with non-resectable or inoperable nonmetastatic lung cancer, improves the thoracic control rate in node-positive resected patients, and provides ever elongating high-quality palliation for the patient with a metastatic disease.
