2. Introduction Radiotherapy forms an important component of
management of esophageal cancer both in the curative as well as
palliative intent of treatment
3. Indication for RT Resectable cancer: as pre-operative
concurrent chemo-radiotherapy as postoperative radiotherapy - in
positive cut margins, nodal positivity and presence of residual
disease. unresectable cancer: concurrent chemo-radiation is the
current standard of care advanced & metastatic disease:
palliative radiotherapy is offered either by external beam or
brachytherapy.
4. RT Settings Radical RT Palliative RT External RT
Brachytherapy : ILBT Ext RT ILBT Key Factors influencing RT
decisions: 1. KPS 2. Magnitude of dysphagia 3. Nutritional status
4. Estimated tolerance to Oncotherapeutics 5. Co-existing 1.
Disease conditions: impending TOF 2. Organ / adj structure
infiltrations 6. medical conditions 1. Pulmonary 2. cardiac Radical
