When doctors discover an abnormal growth in your brain, what happens next?

Decisions are made: Depending on anatomical confirmation, it may be watched, such as a meningioma. If within brain tissue, may require a biopsy. There are both primary and secondary metastatic lesions, and these may be excised, irradiated, or treated with chemotherapy.
