Hello my brother suffering from brain tumor which is 5mm in size. is it easily curable from medicine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need to know more: About the tumor. Some tumors can be watched, if believed to be benign. Others cannot be definitely diagnosed by imaging and may need to be biopsied or removed. Then decisions about additional treatment can be made. Please make sure the patient's doctor is involved. A neurologist and neurosurgeon may also need to be involved.
