Description
Li Kemin and Yin Rutie present a 2024 review on radiation damage to skin and how to prevent or treat it. Radiation once treated skin diseases directly and still anchors care for keloids, skin cancers, and deep tumors. Modern focused beams spare organs better than before, yet skin, the body's largest barrier tissue, is often first in the line of fire.
When tumors sit in or near the skin, damage is hard to avoid, and it weighs heavily on quality of life. With cancer and radiotherapy both rising, the problem grows. The review tracks twenty years of progress: how the damage develops, what protects skin before and during treatment, and which therapies heal it afterward. The authors weigh where the evidence is strong and where it thins.
