Background And Purpose: Radiation-induced lymphopenia (RIL) is a common side effect of radiotherapy (RT) that may negatively impact survival. We aimed to identify RIL predictors in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT).
Materials And Methods: We retrospectively analysed data of 306 patients who underwent radical RT for NSCLC.
