Abstract Nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) occurs frequently in Southern China, and radiotherapy is the main treatment method. At present, intensity‐modulated radiotherapy is widely used, which has improved efficacy in patients with NPC and reduced toxicity and side effects. Recently, helical tomography radiotherapy, proton radiotherapy, carbon particle radiotherapy, and other radiotherapy techniques have been used for the clinical treatment of NPC. Individualized nasopharyngeal cancer targets have also been explored. This paper reviews the research progress in radiotherapy techniques and target volume for NPC
