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 highlight developments in molecular radiation biology of radiation-induced lung injury and their implications in clinical practice.
放射性肺损伤包括放射性肺炎,这是一种肺部炎症,可能表现为剂量限制的急性或亚急性毒性,以及放射性肺纤维化,这是肺部暴露于辐射后的一种晚期效应。本综述旨在强调放射性肺损伤的分子放射生物学方面的进展及其在临床实践中的意义。
