title: [Radiotherapy in the treatment of bronchial carcinoma].
abstract: Aim of this paper is to give the role of the radiotherapy, alone or in combination with other treatment modalities, in treatment of lung cancer. Conventional external radiotherapy is described, as well as some recent techniques: after loading brachytherapy and laser therapy. We concluded that radiotherapy has an important role in treatment of lung cancer, mostly as palliation, and in some selected cases as a treatment with curative intent.
