Abstract: Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT/SABR) has become an important option in the treatment of early non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Radiation pneumonitis (RP) is the main side effect of early NSCLC patients after SBRT/SABR. Patient factors, tumor factors and treatment factors are all associated with the occurrence of RP in early NSCLC patients after SBRT/SABR. In recent years, relevant studies have further clarified the relationship between these factors and RP. In addition, the prediction factors related to RP occurrence are further discussed. In this paper, relevant research progresses in recent years were reviewed.
