What is a brain tumor, and how is it treated?

A brain tumor is an abnormal growth of cells in the brain, which can cause headaches, seizures, and neurological deficits. Treatment may involve:
  • Surgical removal (if accessible)
  • Radiotherapy
  • Chemotherapy
  • Targeted therapies for specific tumor type. The specific treatment plan depends on the tumor type, location, and overall health.
