BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: External beam radiation therapy is a common treatment
for many brain neoplasms. While external beam radiation therapy adheres to dose limits to …

Introduction Cerebral microbleeds have been observed in normal-appearing brain tissue of
patients with glioma years after receiving radiation therapy. The contrast of these …

Background Although radiation therapy (RT) contributes to survival benefit in many brain
tumor patients, it has also been associated with long‐term brain injury. Cerebral …

Background Cranial irradiation is associated with long-term cognitive changes. Cerebral
microbleeds (CMBs) have been identified on susceptibility-weighted MRI (SWI) in patients …

Background Radiotherapy (RT) is an integral component in managing patients with glioma,
but the damage it may cause to healthy brain tissue and quality of life is of concern …

Background Radiation therapy (RT) is essential to the management of many brain tumors,
but has been known to lead to cognitive decline and vascular injury in the form of cerebral …

Results Thirteen of 14 patients exhibited CMBs, with a total of 311 individual CMBs
observed. The number of CMBs observed was significantly higher at late time points (early …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the intermediate-and long-term imaging manifestations of
radiotherapy on normal-appearing brain tissue in patients with treated gliomas using 7T …

The purpose of our study was to determine the frequency and severity of intracerebral
hemorrhages and T2 hyperintense white matter lesions (WMLs) following radiation therapy …

Purpose: Discernment of radiotherapy (XRT) effects vs. tumor activity is difficult in brain
tumor patients during the months after XRT when white matter hyperintensities sometimes …
