16 May 2024
Current Oncology | Brain Tumor Awareness Month


May is brain tumor awareness month, although in some regions, it is celebrated in March. A brain tumor refers to an abnormal mass or growth of cells in the brain. It can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Brain tumors can cause a range of symptoms, including headaches, seizures, cognitive impairments, and neurological deficits. Treatment options include surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. Early detection, awareness, and research are vital in improving outcomes and supporting individuals affected by brain tumors. We would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to all of the researchers who have contributed to this field. In particular, we would like to share some of the innovative research findings and a high-quality Special Issue in the field of brain tumor, published in Current Oncology (ISSN: 1718-7729). We hope this announcement will provide useful information for this field.
