The therapy of pancreatic cancer is fundamentally based on surgical removal and chemotherapy. The available evidence and results of publications concerning the application of radiotherapy are controversial. Accordingly, the international guidelines formulated by radiation oncology organizations have paramount interest in this particular pathology. Answers are eagerly awaited in several unclear questions from ongoing, or recently closed, yet unpublished trials. Modern radiotherapy techniques, like stereotactic radiotherapy, or actually less available modalities, like particle therapy or magnetic resonance imaging guided radiotherapy show promising results, as well as combination of radiation with immunotherapy.
