Abstract Background Radiation-induced brain injury (RIBI) is a debilitating sequela after cranial radiotherapy. Research on the topic of RIBI has gradually entered the public eye, with more innovations and applications of evidence-based research and biological mechanism research in the field of that. This was the first bibliometric analysis on RIBI, assessing brain injury related to radiation articles that were published during 1998–2023, to provide an emerging theoretical basis for the future development of RIBI. Methods Literature were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) from its inception to December 31, 2023. The column of publications, author details, affiliated institutions and countries, publication year, and keywords were also recorded. Results A total of 2543 journal articles were selected. The annual publications on RIBI fluctuated within a certain range. Journal of Neuro-oncology was the most published journal and Radiation Oncology was the most impactful one. LIMOLI CL was the most prolific author with 37 articles and shared the highest h-index with BARNETT GH. The top one country and institutions were the USA and the University of California System, respectively. Clusters analysis of co-keywords demonstrated that the temporal research trends in this field primarily focused on imaging examination and therapy for RIBI. Conclusion This study collects, visualizes, and analyzes the literature within the field of RIBI over the last 25 years to map the development process, research frontiers and hotspots, and cutting-edge directions in clinical practice and mechanisms related to RIBI. |
