Two large, recently published observational studies demonstate a clear down-trend in the use of radiotherapy (RT) over the last 15 years, both in the setting of follicular and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. This change of practice might have a negative impact on clinical outcome. Even within the context of modern systemic therapy, omission of RT translates not only into a shorter progression-free survival (PFS), but also into a worse overall survival (OS). RT should therefore remain standard practice. This short review is aiming to summarize current guidelines and the best evidence available in the management of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Potentially practice changing, ongoing trials will be highlighted.
