The current study was to investigate post-chemotherapy breast cancer with rs-fMRI using mfALFF analysis and correlated with clinical cognitive testing. The results showed altered brain activity in the dorsal attention network in breast cancer patients compared to healthy controls and the affected areas were associated with MMSE, CAMS-R and IES-R scores.
