    Background:
    To explore the dosimetry advantages, adverse reactions and efficacy of helical tomotherapy in the treatment of intracranial multiple brain metastases of lung cancer.
    
    Methods:
    Seven patients with intracranial multiple brain metastases from Feb., 2012 to May 2014 were treated with helical tomotherapy. Whole-brain radiotherapy: the clinical target volume (CTV) was 45 Gy/25 times and gross tumor volume (GTV) was 50～58 Gy/25 times, 5 times in a week.
    
    Results:
    Both the homogeneity and shape-adaptability of radiation in 7 patients were better. The response rate came up to 78%, and the adverse reactions could be tolerated.
    
    Conclusion:
    Helical tomotherapy in the treatment of intracranial multiple brain metastases of lung cancer has better dose distribution and short-term efficacy. It provides a new therapeutic platform for the treatment of multiple brain metastases of lung cancer.
