Abstract

This dissertation aims to predict the cognitive functioning of patients with primary brain tumors at the individual level. The goal is to make these predictions as accurately as possible based on clinical data that is readily available before surgery. These predictions are intended to allow doctors to better inform patients and support the shared decision-making processes when balancing treatment to improve survival against the preservation of function.
