Brief Summary: Patients irradiated to the brain frequently experience nausea The dorsal vagal complex DVC area is a specific brainstem zone and has been identified as likely responsible for nausea Existing clinical studies show correlation between dose to the DVC and nausea but they concern tumors of the airways and upper digestive tract where there are many confounding factors

The aim of this study is to establish a ling between radiation dose to the DVC and nausea Defining a dose threshold to the DVC will allow radiation oncologists to optimize radiation dose distribution and reduce nausea in patients
Detailed Description: Patients irradiated to the brain frequently experience nausea The dorsal vagal complex DVC area is a specific brainstem zone and has been identified as likely responsible for nausea Existing clinical studies show correlation between dose to the DVC and nausea but they concern tumors of the airways and upper digestive tract where there are many confounding factors

A retrospective study was carried out a in the radiotherapy oncology department of Bordeaux University Hospital on 102 patients irradiated for a benign brain tumor This study showed that DVC irradiation was significantly associated with the onset of nausea However this symptom alters the quality of life on a daily basis

The objective of this prospective multicenter non-interventional study is to evaluate using nausea validated questionnaires Functional Living Index-Emesis FLIE score the correlation between DVC irradiation and nausea in benign brain tumors at the end of radiotherapy 1 month later and 3 months later Fatigue associated with brain irradiation will also be studied with BFI Brief Fatigue Inventory

If there is an established link a secondary dose constraint on this structure will be able to be proposed to reduce nausea in these radiotherapy indications
