Most people afflicted by cancer will experience cognitive
impairment, sometimes referred to as 'chemobrain' or 'chemofog',
due to the various direct and indirect effects of their disease and
its treatment. In addition, patients with primary or metastatic
tumors of the brain experience direct neurologic symptoms due, for
example, to the location of their disease, surgical intervention,
and the late effects of treatment such as radiotherapy. The aim of
this book is to serve as a resource for health care professionals
working with cancer patients who experience cognitive changes as a
result of their cancer and its treatment. It provides practical
information to help improve care by reviewing and describing
brain-behavior relationships; research-based evidence on cognitive
changes that occur with various cancers and cancer treatments;
assessment techniques, including neurocognitive assessment and
neuroimaging techniques; and intervention strategies for affected
patients. In short, it will explain how to identify, assess and
treat these conditions.
