This advanced imaging technology is key to making sure patients receive an accurate diagnosis to guide treatment.
Specialty cancer care that meets your needs
Oligodendroglioma treatments include surgery to remove as much of the tumor as possible. Other treatments may be needed after surgery. These might be recommended if any tumor cells remain or if there's an increased risk that the tumor will come back. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy may be used to kill any tumor cells that remain.
Clinical trials may offer you a chance to try the latest treatment options. Ask your healthcare team whether a clinical trial might be right for you. Supportive care also is an option. This can help provide relief from pain and other symptoms of a serious illness. Supportive care can be used at the same time as other treatments, such as surgery, chemotherapy or radiation therapy.
