Abstract：Esophageal cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors of the digestive tract in my country,with low early diagnosis rate and poor prognosis.Radiotherapy plays a key role in the treatment of esophageal cancer,and its combination with other comprehensive treatments is the main treatment method for patients with intermediate and advanced esophageal cancer.Radiotherapy technology has made great progress in the past few decades.The development and application of new radiotherapy equipment has significantly improved the clinical efficacy of esophageal cancer and reduced toxic and side effects,thereby improving survival and ensuring quality of life.Based on the existing evidence,this article reviews the research progress on radiotherapy technology and radiotherapy methods for esophageal cancer.
