Abstract:
Radiation-induced dermatitis (RD) is one of the most common complications induced by radiotherapy in cancer patients.The incidence and severity of RD are largely associated with the risk factors of patients.RD can severely affect the quality of life,even discontinue the treatment and reduce the tumor control rate in severe patients.Currently,randomized control trials evaluating the preventive measures for acute RD have been rarely conducted.The clinical interventions for acute RD significantly vary.In this article,the pathogenesis,risk factors,clinical manifestations,evaluation,prevention and treatment of RD were investigated.
