Cancer brain

Cancer of the brain is a term that encompasses a variety of malignant tumors that develop in the brain or spread to the brain from other parts of the body. These tumors can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Brain cancer can affect any age group, but is most common in children and older adults. Symptoms of brain cancer can vary depending on the size, type, and location of the tumor. Common symptoms may include headaches, seizures, changes in behavior or personality, vision or speech problems, nausea, and loss of balance. Treatment for brain cancer depends on the type and location of the tumor, as well as the patient's age and overall health. Treatment options may include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and/or immunotherapy.
