Summary
This study is testing a new set of evaluations called the SAE (Sensory-Attention-Executive) Battery to see if it can help researchers learn how breast cancer treatment affects the brain. Researchers will compare results from the SAE Battery with traditional questionnaires in 187 women with breast cancer. The goal is to better understand changes in attention, memory, and emotions after treatment.
