Abstract:
Acute radiation dermatitis (ARD) is one of the most common toxicities of radiotherapy. Currently, there is still no standardised protocol and guideline on the prevention and treatment of ARD. Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) has the functions of stimulating wound healing, reducing inflammatory reaction and mitigating pain, etc. Consequently, recent research progress at home and abroad in the application of PBMT for the prevention and treatment of acute radiation skin reactions was reviewed, aiming to provide reference for clinical application of PBMT in radiation protection.
