Customized Neuro-Imaging Referenced Symptom Video for the Reduction of Patient and Caregiver Anxiety Around Radiation Treatment for Brain Tumors
Novel Intervention to Reduce Patient and Caregiver Anxiety Around Radiation Treatment for Brain Tumors With a Customized Neuro-Imaging Referenced Symptom Video
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 20 Jul 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This trial studies whether a customized video intervention can help to reduce anxiety in brain cancer patients undergoing radiation treatment and their caregivers. A customized neuro-imaging referenced symptom video that describes symptoms and side effects specific to the patients' tumor may result in an early and sustained reduction in anxiety and distress during and after radiation treatment, thereby improving quality of life.
