Caruso JP, Moosa S, Fezeu F, Ramesh A, Sheehan JP.

Aims
Stereotactic radiosurgery is increasingly used to treat multiple (four or more) brain metastases. Preserving cognitive functions is a highly relevant treatment goal because cognitive deteriorations may negatively affect a patient’s quality of life. The aim of this study was to ...
