Scientists scan brains to predict Radiation's hidden cost

NCT ID NCT04073966

Summary

This study aims to understand why some patients experience memory and thinking problems after receiving targeted radiation for brain tumors. Researchers will use special MRI scans on 15 patients over one year to see if changes in the brain's wiring are linked to these cognitive declines. The goal is to find ways to predict and potentially prevent these side effects in the future.
