What Is a Brain Tumor?

A brain tumor is the growth of unusual cells in your brain. It can develop in any part of the brain or skull including the nasal cavity, the brain’s protective lining, sinuses, the underside of the brain, and more.

Treatments for Brain Tumors

Surgery

The goal of removing the tumor is to remove it completely, or to remove as much of the tumor as possible with minimal damage to healthy brain tissue around it.

Radiation Therapy

This type of therapy uses high-energy beams like X-rays to destroy the tumor cells or slow their growth.

Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy uses medication to eliminate the tumor cells. The drugs can be taken as pills or injected into a vein.

Targeted Drug Therapy

Unlike chemotherapy, targeted drug treatments only focus on the tumorous cells and spare healthy tissue.
