Spatially fractionated radiotherapy is a new concept involving partial irradiation of tumor volumes. Different techniques are described: mini-beam and micro-beam radiotherapy (pre-clinical) and LATTICE radiotherapy (L-RT) (clinical). Although L-RT is emergent in clinical practice and its evidence is still limited, it has still revealed excellent outcomes. At least three clinical situations can be discussed: definitive palliative radiotherapy, dose escalation (boost) or salvage radiotherapy. The interaction between L-RT and the immune system is still under investigation. Preclinical observations have already demonstrated a strong interaction, with tumor response dependent on immune system stimulation and the generation of an abscopal effect.
