Neuro-oncology is the specialized field focusing on the study of neoplasms affecting the brain and spinal cord, many of which pose significant threats to life. Conditions like malignant brain cancers, gliomas of the brainstem and pons, glioblastoma multiforme, and high-grade astrocytoma, demand prompt and effective treatment to avoid a decline in survival rates.

Neuro-oncology is the specialized field focusing on the study of neoplasms affecting the brain and spinal cord, many of which pose significant threats to life. Conditions like malignant brain cancers, gliomas of the brainstem and pons, glioblastoma multiforme, and high-grade astrocytoma, demand prompt and effective treatment to avoid a decline in survival rates. The approach to treating neurological cancers considers various factors, including the patient's health and medical history, the location, type, and size of the tumor, and other individual considerations. Treatment modalities such as surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or experimental therapies may be employed in managing cancers associated with the brain.
