Estimating Potential Benefits to Neurocognition with Proton Therapy in Adults with Brain Tumors

PURPOSE: Photon radiation therapy (RT) is important in the treatment of many brain tumors but can negatively affect neurocognition. Proton therapy (PT) can reduce doses to normal brain structures. We compared photon and proton plans to estimate the potential benefit in cognition if the patient were...
