Abstract

Radiation therapy is a useful treatment for tumors and vascular malformations of the central nervous system. Radiation therapy is associated with complications, including leukoencephalopathy, radiation necrosis, vasculopathy, and optic neuropathy. Secondary tumors are also often seen long after radiation therapy. Secondary tumors are often benign tumors, such as hemangiomas and meningiomas, but sometimes malignant gliomas and soft tissue sarcomas emerge. We review the imaging findings of complications that may occur after brain radiation therapy.
