Abstract:Background
The aim of this study was to evaluate post‐irradiation changes in the central nervous system (CNS) detected using magnetic resonance (MR) imaging.
Methods
Magnetic resonance images of 15 children with CNS tumors treated through whole‐brain irradiation over 10 years were reviewed retrospectively. Variables such as age at the time of irradiation, total radiation dose, treatment length, and time interval between irradiation and MR changes, were evaluated.
