摘要
The impact of chemotherapy on brain functionality has been widely investigated from a clinical perspective, and there is a consensus on a significant impairment of multiple cognitive domains affecting cancer patients after treatment. Nuclear medicine offers a variety of biomar-kers for evaluating possible effects of chemotherapy on the brain and for depicting brain changes after chemotherapy. This review sum-marizes the most relevant findings on brain imaging in patients undergoing chemotherapy for the most common oncologic diseases. The literature published to date offers exciting results on several radi-olabeled compounds, from the more common imaging of glucose metabolism to neuroinflammation. This review also provides a general overview of the literature concerning clinical features and the physio-pathologic basis of chemotherapy-related cognitive impairment.
