Abstract:Quality of life (QoL) and neurocognitive performance of patients with glioma surviving longer than five years after surgery and radiotherapy (RT) is not well established.

The aim of this study is to correlate the white matter lesion volume and the remaining volume of unchanged brain tissue with the cognitive status and QoL of long-term brain tumor survivors.
