Core Tip	Lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors. Radiotherapy plays an indispensable role in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. How to ensure delivery of an accurate dose to the tumor while minimizing the irradiation of normal tissues remains a huge challenge. In this brief review, we summarize the methods of radiotherapy technology, especially for the image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT). We believe that IGRT can help ensure accurate dosing of the target area and reduce radiation damage to the surrounding normal tissue.
