Abstract: At present,approximately 20% of patients with clinically diagnosed early non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)are inoperable for their own reasons.Stereotactic radiotherapy(SRT)has the advantages of short treatment time,mild treatment-related injury and high local control rate.Currently,it has been used internationally as a first-line treatment for early incapacity of NSCLC.SRT has also achieved encouraging therapeutic effects in the treatment of early-stage NSCLC,but there are also some problems to be solved urgently.This article aims to summarize the dosimetry,clinical indications and radiotherapy injury of SRT in the treatment of early-stage NSCLC.
