Common symptoms
- Headaches that are new or getting worse
- Weakness, or changes in speech or vision
- Seizures, confusion or changes in personality
These symptoms have many possible causes. If you are worried, speak to your doctor or get in touch.
How it's diagnosed
An MRI scan followed by surgery or a biopsy to confirm the diagnosis and its molecular features.
What treatment looks like
01
Surgery
Removing as much tumour as is safely possible, or a biopsy where surgery isn't advisable.
02
Radiotherapy and chemotherapy
Commonly given together after surgery, with the plan tailored to the tumour and to you.
03
Supportive neurology
Managing seizures, swelling and fatigue to protect quality of life.
Your plan depends on your diagnosis, scans and circumstances, and is agreed with you.
