Neurologic Complications of Cancer
and Its Treatment

Neuro-oncology has evolved substantially as a clinical and research discipline over the past few decades. Initially the province of isolated devotees, it has become a well-recognized subspecialty of neurology, oncology, and neurosurgery. The Society for Neuro-Oncology, founded in 1995, now has 900 members. Most tertiary care hospitals have staff physicians who consider themselves neuro-oncologists.
