Where can i find a consultant with expertise in pineal tumours?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neurosurgeon needed: The pineal gland is a small endocrine gland that sits in your brain. It is situated in a part of your brain called the epithalamus, near the center, and by where the two halves of the thalamus join. A pineal gland tumor would be treated by a neurosurgeon. Ask your primary doctor to refer you to one.
