Abstract

The general population is aging, which expectedly will lead to a future increase in older patients with cancer. This review summarises the recent advances in radiotherapy. Technological advances have led radiotherapy to be an efficient and well-tolerated treatment option in older patient with cancer. Studies show no difference in toxicity and disease control rates compared with the ones in younger patients with cancer. MR-guided radiotherapy, proton therapy, and integration of artificial intelligence in treatment planning represent the latest advances in the field of radiotherapy and hold potential to further improve the treatment of older patients with cancer.
