Abstract
Superficial radiation therapy (SRT) is a clinical treatment modality where ionizing radiation is used as a viable, non-surgical option for most Non Melanoma Skin Cancers (NMSC) as well as keloids. The science behind superficial radiotherapy in dermatology practice is reviewed, as are indications, dosing strategies, and comparisons to surgical treatment.
