Abstract
(3) RCT that assessed neurocognitive impairment and quality of life: the baseline cognitive performance of most patients is significantly impaired. Intracranial tumor control is an essential factor in stabilizing neurocognitive function. The data on neurocognitive toxicity related to WBRT are still contradictory. Impairment of both neurocognitive function and quality of life of patients with brain metastases needs to be further addressed in RCT.
