Cleveland scientists say they may have found a way to keep the brain sharp even after punishing rounds of whole-brain ...

CLEVELAND, Ohio — Whole brain radiotherapy saves lives by treating cancer that has spread to the brain, but it also causes long-standing brain damage. Many patients who go through whole brain ...

A new study led by investigators from Mass General Brigham trialed stereotactic (targeted) brain-directed radiation in 100 patients with small cell lung cancer and brain metastases, finding they ...

How this approach differs from standard care Previous studies have shown that, for patients with four or fewer brain tumors, stereotactic radiation—which uses focused beams of high-dose radiation to ...

A new study led by investigators from Mass General Brigham trialed stereotactic (targeted) brain-directed radiation in 100 patients with small cell lung cancer and brain metastases, finding they ...

A new study offers hope for brain cancer patients facing memory loss from radiotherapy. By blocking a single immune receptor, scientists preserved cognition in mice without dulling the cancer-killing ...

Randomized comparisons of stereotactic radiation and whole-brain radiation for patients with more than four brain metastases have been lacking. A randomized trial showed that stereotactic radiation ...

In a Phase 3 randomized trial, Mass General Brigham researchers found that stereotactic radiation targeting individual tumors led to lower symptom burden, better cognitive outcomes, and better day to ...
