For patients with lung cancer undergoing radiotherapy, the rates of brain necrosis is rising due to longer survival outcomes in patients. Luis Raez, MD, Memorial Cancer Institute, Pembroke Pines, FL, comments on treatment options for this group of patients.

This interview took place at the 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC) in San Diego, CA.
