Core Tip This mini-review examines the evolving comprehension of radiation-induced cardiotoxicity in lung cancer, emphasizing the transition from whole-heart to cardiac substructure-focused dose evaluation and risk prediction. The primary focus is on utilizing advanced predictive modeling techniques, such as radiomics and machine learning, to achieve personalized risk stratification. Importantly, the methodological paradigm developed for predicting radiation pneumonitis is highlighted as a crucial surrogate framework for creating analogous models for cardiotoxicity, given the similarities in injury mechanisms and data-driven modeling approaches. Additionally, the review underscores the essential need for integrated cardio-oncology management strategies in the context of combination therapies involving immunotherapy and targeted agents, with the goal of maintaining long-term cardiovascular health without compromising oncologic outcomes.
