Briefly we summarize the main adverse effects of radiation therapy in oncology patients. The ratio for radiation dermatitis and Epidermal Growth Factor Inhibitors (EGFRIs) side effects, if EGFRIs treatment is received in the same period as radiation than the case the radiation is received alone is discussed. Preventive topical techniques and palliative treatment with dermocosmetics are presented.
