{Abstract}: The use of radiation therapy (RT) for pancreatic cancer continues to be controversial, despite recent technical advances. Improvements in systemic control have created an evolving role for RT and the need for improved local tumor control, but currently, no standardized approach exists. Advances in stereotactic body RT, motion management, real-time image guidance, and adaptive therapy have renewed hopes of improved outcomes in this devastating disease with one of the lowest survival rates. This case-based guide provides a practical framework for delivering stereotactic body RT for locally advanced pancreatic cancer. In conjunction with multidisciplinary care, an intradisciplinary approach should guide treatment of the high-risk cases outlined within these guidelines for prospective peer review and treatment safety discussions.
