Meningioma

A meningioma the most common brain tumor. It forms from the meninges which is the membrane that covers the brain and spinal cord.Meningiomas are typically benign (not cancerous) and don't necessarily need treatment unless they press on the brain tissue and cause symptoms. Over time some meningiomas calcify and thus stop growing. Symptoms (if any) as well as treatment options depend on the location of the meningioma.The Prenuvo scan, like all non injection based imaging, may not see a small meningioma unless it presses upon the adjacent brain tissue. This finding coupled with your symptom history are important in determining the impact of a meningioma.
