A member asked:
Are hallucinations caused by brain tumours any different than hallucinations caused by a disease? if so why and how?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really: They are all due to misfiring of the neurons. www.brainfacts.org A hallucination is a perception in the absence of external stimulus that has qualities of real perception. Hallucinations are vivid, substantial, and are perceived to be located in external objective space.
