Practical recommendations for the management of radiodermatitis: on behalf of the ESTRO RTT committee
Read the guideline
Abstract
There is a substantial body of literature addressing the prevention, acute management, and follow-up care of radiation induced dermatitis (RID). The quality and application of this evidence, however, is inconsistent and its interpretation varies widely. While several national guidelines have been developed to standardise practices locally, many of these resources are not publicly available. On behalf of the European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology (ESTRO) Radiation Therapist (RTT) Committee, an international writing group consisting of 12 experts from radiotherapy and two patient representatives composed a recommendation document for the management of RID.
