What to Know About Brain Cancer, Symptoms, and Treatment Plans

Being diagnosed with cancer must be among the top things no one wants to hear from a practitioner. Fortunately, expert support and treatment are gradually increasing patient survival chances worldwide to a record-holding status. Oncologists working at Hunterdon Hematology Oncology, LLC, a Flemington, New Jersey cancer-treating institution, treat various cancers with targeted therapies and advanced treatment technologies. The cancer specialist treats multiple cancer forms from myeloma, lung, colon, and brain cancer in Flemington.

How are types of brain cancer categorized?

Brain cancer results in the formation of masses known as tumors. The tumor may be metastatic or primary. Primary tumors arise from within the spinal cord or brain and might be malignant or benign.

Although benign, some tumors like meningiomas may invade other brain tissue resulting in life-threatening risks. Some benign tumors could also turn malignant over time.

Metastatic or secondary tumors begin within other body parts, spreading toward their brain. Breast cancer, melanoma, lung cancer, and colon cancer are at high risk of metastasizing to the patient’s brain.

How is medical life after a brain cancer diagnosis?

After a brain cancer diagnosis by our specialists, we ensure you receive comprehensive information on any viable treatment option. Experienced physicians also recommend and practice customized treatment using breakthrough brain cancer therapies. At Hunterdon Hematology Oncology, we offer patients several onsite services such as counseling, pharmacy, and dietary options that support their recovery and healing. Please schedule your appointment at Hunterdon through our online booking or call channel.

Which symptoms are closely associated with brain tumors?

The severity and location of your brain cancer determine your symptoms, but every brain tumor is known to bring about several internal and external changes. They might include fatigue, seizures, headaches, double vision, change in the patient’s speech, and sleeping problems. It might also cause mood swings, vision loss, light sensitivity, memory loss and confusion, and vomiting. Remember that headaches will be the first or among your earliest symptoms of brain cancer.

How are brain tumors treated?

Whenever specialists deem cancer removable, you may undergo surgery for removal. At Hunterdon Hematology Oncology, LLC, the teams review your past medical records and evaluate your tumor. According to results from scans, they then advise you to find an effective treatment option for your specific cancer. Patient treatment may span from:

  • Radiation Therapy: This aims at shrinking the tumor for easy removal during your surgery. Mostly carried out before the surgery, it might be continued after to kill any cancer cells remaining. It could even serve as your treatment when surgery is not viable because of various factors.

You could undergo different radiation therapies, including stereotactic radiosurgery and external beam radiotherapy. Stereotactic radiosurgery is often used by specialists when surgery is not an active route.

This treatment involves focusing many high-energy X-rays at a tumor to deliver a high radiation dose while preserving healthy tissue surrounding the area.

  • Chemotherapy: Chemo relies on drugs to fight brain tumors. A specialist may administer treatment through intravenous and oral techniques. Some cases, however, require direct injection in the cerebrospinal fluid inside the spinal canal or brain.
  • Targeted Therapy: Like chemotherapy, targeted therapy also uses medications. However, its drug is designed to target the tumor’s proteins, genes, and blood vessels. Cutting of factors favoring cancer’s growth enhances the specialist’s chances at defeating cancer. It also inhibits further cancer cell spread.

Final Thoughts

Treating brain cancer may be complex, requiring significant expertise. Contact our specialist teams in Flemington for diagnosis, scans, and efficient treatment options.
