Brain tumors have a longstanding reputation for being intractable to therapy, and with evidence suggesting that the incidence of some brain tumors is increasing, this has become the most feared cancer. However, with improvements in imaging technologies, radiation therapy and chemotherapy , as well as a greater knowledge of the genetic causes of brain tumors, better diagnosis and treatment is available, providing a more optimistic outlook for patients. This book, written by leading professionals in the field of neuro-oncology, provides a valuable overview and presentation of the most up-to-date ideas in the diagnosis, treatment and management of intracranial tumors.
