This book provides evidence-based management in neuro-oncology covering all aspects such as pathology, radiology, surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy.The field of neuro-oncology is rapidly evolving and new evidence is coming out every day towards the optimal management of brain tumors. This necessitates a requirement of a complete guide that shall provide an evidence-based and personalized approach towards dealing with patients.  This book also covers recent advances in personalized treatment formed through the relevant basis of anatomy, imaging, radiology, surgical, radiation and systemic treatment of brain and spinal tumors. In addition it also covers the , practical aspects of the planning of the Gamma knife and other radio surgical aspects. The book shall provide valuable assistance to practicing neuro-oncologists to practice better evidence-based personalized medicine.

With the rapid expansion of imaging technologies, molecular markers, and onco‑pathological tests, clinicians increasingly face uncertainty about selecting the most appropriate investigations for diagnosing and staging cancer. This lack of clarity often results in under‑ or over‑investigating, leading to delays in initiating timely treatment.This book provides a structured, subsite‑wise—and in some sections, histology‑wise—overview of the ideal investigations required to diagnose, stage, prognosticate, and predict cancer and its treatment responses. It offers evidence based recommendations  (based on sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, etc.) and concise guidance that clinicians can readily apply in daily practice. Each chapter outlines the essential investigations needed during post‑treatment follow‑up of cancer patients.The book serves oncology residents across surgical, medical, and radiation oncology, as well as junior and senior faculty seeking to strengthen their investigative approach and apply evidence‑based practices consistently in clinical settings.
