Abstract

Radiotherapy is widely used to treat for cancer. This therapy aims to kill cancer cells while sparing the surrounding tissue where possible. Radiotherapy can impair the normal healing process in any phase of tissue repair. This review discusses the acute and late effects of radiotherapy and relates them to wound healing.
