What is the best treatment available for my tumor?
At the present time there is no established best treatment program for this disease. What is crucial in making a decision about where to be treated and what treatment to choose is to find a place that offers a comprehensive program with a multidisciplinary team of professionals who commit most or all of their time to treating patients with central nervous system tumors. Such places are much more likely to take an aggressive approach to treatment, beginning with surgery and continuing with radiotherapy, chemotherapy and biological therapy. It is also important to select doctors who are flexible enough to adapt their treatment to the individual patient’s needs rather than relying on rigid standards and protocols.
