The team approach is vital in the treatment of brain tumors.

Major brain tumor centers, including Memorial Sloan-Kettering, have a multidisciplinary brain tumor board that reviews each patient's case and develops a treatment plan.

This team should include physicians with expertise in the following specialties:

  • neuropathology
  • neuroradiology
  • neurosurgery
  • neurology
  • radiation oncology

Major brain tumor treatment centers are more likely to provide the most advanced treatment options and have the most experienced medical professionals as compared to hospitals that don't offer specialized brain tumor care. Tumors that some physicians have considered inoperable, for example, have later been successfully removed by specialized neurosurgeons who are trained in the latest technology.
