India reports 40,000 new brain tumor cases annually: Why early detection is crucial

This staggering statistic highlights the urgent need for early detection strategies in combating brain tumors, a perspective increasingly underscored within the pharmaceutical industry.

Whether a patient has a primary benign tumor or a subsequent malignant tumor, both can have catastrophic effects.
