AbstractWe evaluated the mean white matter fractional anisotropy (FA) of childhood medulloblastoma and acute lymphoblastic leukemia survivors who had undergone standardized whole brain irradiation and chemotherapy treatment regimes, to determine if the severity of reduction in FA (compared to normal subjects) correlates with IQ scores; full-scale IQ (FSIQ), verbal IQ (VIQ) and performance IQ (PIQ). We found statistically significant correlations between deviation in mean white matter FA and FSIQ (r = 0.661, p< 0.0001), VIQ (r = 0.500, p = 0.007), PIQ (r = 0.716, p < 0.0001), suggesting that white matter FA is a useful biomarker of treatment-induced neurotoxicity.
