Treatments vary, according to tumor type, and include:
- Neurosurgery (stereotactic biopsy, craniotomy for tumor excision)
- Radiation (whole brain, limited field, stereotactic radiosurgery, fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery/radiotherapy, gamma knife)
- Chemotherapy (Temozolomide, anti-angiogenesis with Avastin)
In some cases, specialized technical adjuncts are employed such as:
- Awake craniotomy
- Functional mapping (including cortical or motor mapping)
- Intraoperative navigation
- Intraoperative MRI
