Virtual reality cognitive training for cancer patients
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study uses virtual reality to help cancer patients improve memory, attention, and other thinking skills. It may help if you have noticed changes in your thinking after your cancer diagnosis or treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
