Neurological Cancer Treatments

Neurological cancer treatments focus on cancers affecting the brain and nervous system. Primary options include surgery to remove tumors, radiation therapy to shrink or target cancer cells, and chemotherapy, which uses drugs to kill cancer cells or stop their growth. Targeted therapies may also be used to attack specific cancer characteristics, while immunotherapy helps the body's immune system fight the cancer. Clinical trials are important for testing new treatments. Each treatment plan is personalized based on the cancer type, location, and the patient's overall health. Supportive care is essential to manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
