Traditional radiation treatments deliver the same radiation plan to cancers with large margins. Improvements in imaging, technology, and artiﬁcial intelligence have made it possible to account for changes between treatments and improve the delivery of radiation. These advances can potentially lead to signiﬁcant beneﬁts in tumor coverage and normal tissue sparing. Gynecologic cancers can uniquely beneﬁt from this technology due to the signiﬁcant changes in bladder, bowel, and rectum between treatments as well as the changes in tumors commonly seen between treatments. Preliminary studies have shown that online adaptive radiation can maintain coverage of the tumor while sparing nearby organs. Given these potential beneﬁts, numerous clinical trials are ongoing to investigate the clinical beneﬁts of online adaptive radiotherapy. Despite the beneﬁts, implementation of online adaptive radiotherapy requires signiﬁcant clinical resources. Additionally, the timing and workﬂow for online adaptive radiotherapy is being optimized. In this review, we discuss the history and evolution of radiation techniques, the logistics and implementation of online adaptive radiation, and the potential beneﬁts of online adaptive radiotherapy for gynecologic cancers.  \nKeywords: gynecologic cancer; online adaptive radiotherapy; radiation oncology  \n1. Introduction  \nGynecologic (GYN) cancer is deﬁned as any cancer originating in the women's reproductive organs. There are ﬁve major subtypes of GYN cancers including cervical cancer, uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, vaginal cancer, and vulvar cancer. About 94,000 women are diagnosed with gynecologic cancers in the US every year, with the most common GYN cancer being uterine cancer followed by ovarian cancer and cervical cancer [1] .  \nThe management of GYN cancers varies, but can involve surgery, chemotherapy, and/or radiation. Often, patients with locally advanced disease or high-risk features after surgery will receive either deﬁnitive radiation or adjuvant radiation while others may receive further radiation with brachytherapy. In this review, we will investigate the role of radiation in treating gynecologic cancers with a focus on the future role of online adaptive radiotherapy (ART) for GYN cancers, the next frontier in radiation therapy.  \n2. History of Radiotherapy for GYN Cancers  \nRadiation has long been used in the ﬁeld of GYN cancers and the evolution of radiation in GYN cancers is shown in Figure 1. The ﬁrst reports of radiation in GYN cancers came from the 19th century where physicians placed small pieces of radium near the cervix to treat cervical cancer [2] . In the 1960s these techniques were replaced with 2D radiation where patients were treated with external radiation based on bony landmarks using anterior-p","cbCaibRapmCgCXHs","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibRapmCgCXHs","pdf",1899410,"English","# Introduction\n# History of Radiotherapy for GYN Cancers","[{\"question\":\"What problem does online adaptive radiotherapy address compared with traditional radiation treatment?\",\"answer\":\"Traditional treatments often deliver the same plan with large margins, which can miss pelvic disease and expose more uninvolved tissue.
