These web pages are intended to give an overview of the diagnosis, staging and treatment of major pediatric tumours. The section is set up by systems-based modules. Currently the Pediatric Brain Tumour module has been developed. Within this module, there are sub-modules with information on eight common pediatric brain tumours. Each sub-module is set up in a common format reviewing epidemiology, pathology, radiology, staging, and treatment modalities. Make sure you complete the interactive quiz after reviewing each sub-module.
Please note that at this time only the Ependymoma module is available (to view this module please click 'Ependymoma' on the left hand side or from the image below). Check back soon to view the other modules.
