Sixteen breast cancer survivors with persistent cognitive impairment and fatigue completed 20 sessions of neurofeedback and reported statistically significant improvements in perceived cognition and fatigue levels. These results support the need for further trials of various neurofeedback protocols in different populations of cancer survivors to manage debilitating symptoms.
