Abstract
The role of prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) in treating extensive‐stage small‐cell lung cancer (ES‐SCLC) has been controversial. This study aimed to comprehensively analyze the efficacy of PCI for the treatment of ES‐SCLC under active brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) surveillance.
