Research progress on cancer-related fatigue induced by radiotherapy / 中华放射肿瘤学杂志

Cancer-related fatigue (CRF) is a symptom associated with cancer and cancer treatment. The incidence of CRF during radiotherapy is extremely high and severely affects the quality of life and treatment compliance of patients. Although more and more studies on CRF have been carried out, the pathogenesis of CRF caused by radiotherapy is still not well understood, and systemic interventions remain to be improved. In this article, the pathogenesis, influencing factors, and interventions of CRF caused by radiotherapy were reviewed, aiming to provide reference for optimizing treatment options in clinical practice.
