Abstract: Radiation-induced skin injury refers to damage caused to skin tissue after exposure to large doses of ionizing radiation. It is the most common complication in localized radiation therapy for tumors and can also occur under conditions such as nuclear accident, radiation accident, and long-term occupational exposure. Currently, there is no uniform standard for the diagnosis of radiation-induced skin injury both domestically and internationally, and there is a lack of effective methods for the prevention and treatment, necessitating more evidence-based medical researches to explore. Combining domestic and international literature, national occupational health standards, and existing clinical experience, the consensus writing group organized experts in related fields at home and abroad to repeatedly discuss and formulate an expert consensus for the diagnosis and treatment of radiation-induced skin injury, serving as a reference for clinical use.
