Brief description/objective

Psychosocial screening in brain tumor patients is of high importance. We applied The Basic Documentation for Psycho-Oncology Short Form (PO-Bado SF) in primary brain tumor patients and patients with metastasis. The aim was to evaluating consistency between physicians' perception and the results of the patients' self-assessment.
