Abstract

High-dose radiation therapy is a mainstay in the treatment of brain tumors, yet its effects on brain structure and subsequent implications for patients’ psychological well-being and cognitive function remain poorly understood. This case study presents the journey of Mr. China swami, a glioblastoma multiforme patient, undergoing high-dose radiation therapy. Through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, psychological assessments, and neuropsychological evaluations, the study elucidates the intricate interplay between radiation-induced brain changes, psychological distress, and cognitive decline. The findings underscore the necessity for tailored supportive care interventions and meticulous treatment planning to optimize outcomes for brain tumor patients undergoing radiation therapy.
