Radiation-induced lung injury includes radiation pneumonitis, which can be acute or subacute, and radiation-induced lung fibrosis as a late effect of radiation exposure to the lung. This review highlights advancements in molecular radiation biology related to radiation-induced lung injury and their implications in clinical practice.
Radiation-induced lung injury encompasses radiation-induced pneumonitis, inflammation of the lung which may manifest as a dose-limiting acute or subacute toxicity, and radiation-induced lung fibrosis, a late effect of lung exposure to radiation. This review aims to high-light developments in molecular radiation biology of radiation-induced lung injury and their implications in clinical practice Semin Radiat Oncol 31:155-161 Published by Elsevier Inc.
