What causes brain tumours?
The short answer is that no-one knows why brain tumours occur. There are many theories, some of which are scientifically sound, others being nothing more than speculation. Here are some of those theories. Please remember that no definitive cause has been found and therefore we should not draw any firm conclusions based on non-factual information:

CURE FOR LIFE FOUNDATION...Help us find a cure.
Not many people know that brain tumours are the most common, life threatening tumours in children. What's more, behind Leukaemia, they're the most common of all childhood cancers. Perhaps the most worrying thing is unlike so many other forms of cancer, the incidence of brain cancer is increasing.

Life In His Hands ..by Susan Wyndham
The remarkable true story of a medical maverick and one of his most high-profile and tragic cases. It is a book full of heartache and hope and scientific marvels. Ultimately, it is a testament to the strength of the human spirit.
Welcome to the Centre for Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery
Our Philosophy is to deliver the highest-quality and most technologically advanced neurosurgical care possible, in a humanistic and personal manner..
This site provides information for both Medical Professionals and their patients. We have found that when patients and their families know more about their condition and treatment options, they can take a more involved role in decisions regarding their care. In turn, this contributes to better medical outcomes and a more satisfying experience for everyone. The information for Medical Professionals is intended to help doctors keep abreast of the very latest developments in neurosurgery, so they can give their patients the best care possible.
Please take the time to explore our site. We encourage you to contact us with any questions, comments or feedback you may have. We need this to help us to continue providing you with the neurosurgical information you need.
Brain cancer research
The Cancer Council along, with Clinical Neurosurgeon Dr Charlie Teo are on a quest to raise the profile of this killer cancer by encouraging leading organisations, expert scientists and medical specialists to contribute to ‘banking tumours’ across the nation with the new national fundraising and advocacy group, Brain Cancer Research Advocates.
The new fund aims to raise $700,000 per year over a five year period in order to paying for 6 research nurses across the nation (other than NSW & WA which already exist) as well as for research forums, blood & tissue extraction & collection.

New patients
New patients may contact us to arrange a consultation. They may also send radiographs and written medical documents to our address. However, due to the large volume of postage received, we cannot guarantee a time frame within which the materials will be reviewed, and we must ask that all patients wishing to have materials returned to them include return postage. No definitive medical advice is given over the telephone to patients prior to an in-person consultation.
