Proton therapy and image-guided precision have improved outcomes for primary brain tumor patients by minimizing toxicity and enhancing targeting accuracy. Multidisciplinary collaboration, involving ...

About 40% of patients with brain metastases who experienced cognitive decline after brain radiation therapy regained full cognitive function within 6 months following treatment, a new analysis found.

While targeted radiation can be an effective treatment for brain tumors, subsequent potential necrosis of the treated areas can be hard to distinguish from the tumors on a standard MRI. A new study ...

While tremendous relief comes from successfully battling cancer, survivors can also experience cognitive impairments caused by the disease and its treatment. Up to 70% of survivors experience trouble ...
