Abstract
External beam radiotherapy is effective in the management of bone metastases for both local and more widespread pain. It is effective in spinal canal compression and pathological fracture where it also may have a prophylactic role. Single dose radiotherapy for bone metastases is a highly cost effective palliative treatment.
