Abstract:
Spatially fractionated radiation therapy (SFRT) dates from 1909. With the development of radiotherapy technologies and radiobiological theories, advances have been made in both the connotation and implementation method of SFRT. Additionally, clinical outcomes have further corroborated the role of SFRT as a palliative radiotherapy technique. This review summarizes the advances in the application of SFRT as a palliative radiotherapy technique from the aspects of the development history and related technologies, radiobiological basis, and clinical applications, in order to offer a reference for the implementation of SFRT.
