This comprehensive volume delves into the most recent models and techniques employed in the study of brain tumor biology. The book is structured into four sections: in vivo models, ex vivo models, treatments in mice, and clinical imaging. Within these sections, various topics are covered, including in vivo preclinical models of lower-grade gliomas, medulloblastoma, and brain metastases; ex vivo methods for glioblastoma patient-derived cell lines and organotypic brain cultures for metastasis; in vivo treatments of preclinical models that evaluate neurological function, dynamic immunotherapy, and neurological impacts of brain irradiation; and clinical imaging and modeling, such as biomechanics and vascular perfusion.

In the tradition of the Neuromethods series, chapters in this book provide in-depth and practical guidance from experts, ensuring that readers can achieve successful outcomes in their laboratory. By presenting cutting-edge and practical approaches, Brain Tumors serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking to comprehend the diverse techniques employed to unravel the complexities of brain tumors.
