What the trial team says
In this proposal, the investigators introduce advanced diffusion and volumetric imaging techniques along with innovative, automated image parcellation methods to identify critical brain regions, incorporate into cognitive-sparing SRS for intracranial lesions, and analyze biomarkers of radiation response. This work will advance the investigators' understanding of neurocognitive changes after brain SRS and help create interventions that preserve cognitive-function in patients with intracranial lesions.

How to use this
Talk to your care team first. They know your history and can tell you whether this trial is worth your time.
Joining a trial is always your choice. A trial is a test, not a proven treatment. Being in one is not a promise that it will help you.
