Definitive intent radiation therapy (RT) for early-stage mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma typically includes a dose of 24 to 30 Gy. While modest, these doses may have associated toxicity. For patients with indolent B-cell lymphoma, there is increasing support for the use of ultra-low-dose RT (ULDRT) using 4 Gy in 2 fractions as part of a response-adapted approach, as high rates of complete response have been documented. This paradigm has been prospectively evaluated in the management of orbital and gastric indolent B-cell lymphomas; however, there is limited data guiding the use of ULDRT for lung MALT.
