  • Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), as a public health emergency, is a serious threat to human health. Cancer patients have a high risk of being infected with COVID-19. As one of important means of cancer treatment, radiotherapy has become an important alternative to surgery during the epidemic of COVID-19. The radiotherapy department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital ensured the smooth development of radiotherapy work on the setup of prevention and control systems for COVID-19 by establishing admission strategies for cancer patients, disinfection, isolation, daily management measures, scientific exploration, and clinical practice. In this paper, the associated strategies are summarized and analyzed, which can provide experience and reference for radiotherapy treatment under public health emergencies.
