Overview
Electrophysiological exams, such as electroencephalography (EEG) play a marginal role in the diagnosis of brain tumors.The definitive diagnosis of brain tumor can only be confirmed by histological examination of tumor tissue samples obtained either by means of brain biopsy or open surgery. The histologic examination is essential for determining the appropriate treatment and the correct prognosis.
