Abstract
The results of a randomized, controlled trial investigating the neurocognitive effects of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), with or without whole-brain radiation therapy (WBRT), to treat brain metastases demonstrated a significant reduction in learning and memory, associated with the addition of WBRT to SRS. the results indicate that SRS monotherapy is an effective and safe initial management strategy for brain metastases.Entities:
