Abstract
Radiotherapy (RT), used for the treatment of cancers, such as lung cancer, lymphoma, breast cancer, bone marrow transplantation, and esophageal cancer, causes the exposure of lungs to radiation. Since the lungs are very sensitive to ionizing radiation, radiation-induced lung diseases due to radiation therapy are usually common. In this article, lung diseases secondary to RT and the diagnosis and treatment of these diseases were evaluated in light of the literature.
