Definition
Brain cancer is a type of cancer that arises from the brain cells, tissues, or the meninges (the protective membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord). It can be primary, originating in the brain, or secondary, resulting from the spread of cancer from other body parts, and requires treatments such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy.
