Brain Tumor
A brain tumor refers to an abnormal growth of cells in the brain that can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). These tumors can originate from the brain tissue itself (primary tumors) or spread from other parts of the body (metastatic tumors). Symptoms of a brain tumor can vary depending on its size, location, and rate of growth. Common symptoms include headaches, seizures, difficulty speaking or understanding language, vision problems, and changes in personality or behavior. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for managing brain tumors and improving the patient’s quality of life.
Treatment for brain tumors depends on several factors, including the type, size, and location of the tumor, as well as the patient’s overall health and preferences. The main treatment options include surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. Surgery aims to remove as much of the tumor as possible without damaging surrounding brain tissue.
Radiation therapy uses high-energy rays to kill cancer cells or shrink tumors, while chemotherapy involves using drugs to destroy cancer cells. Additionally, targeted therapy and immunotherapy may be used in certain cases to specifically target and attack cancer cells. Treatment plans are often tailored to individual patients to optimize outcomes and minimize side effects.
