Guidelines

NHS Scotland has referral guidelines for suspected cancer.  Please select ‘Brain and Central Nervous System Cancers’.

Scottish clinical management guidelines for brain and central nervous system tumours are available from the neuro-oncology page of the West of Scotland Cancer Network intranet website but are only accessible within the NHS network.

Scottish follow-up guidelines

DVLA driving guidelines are available from the DVLA ‘at a glance’ section of their website

The guidelines outline the recommended treatment pathway for patients promoting the equitable provision of high quality care.  Guidelines are not designed to substitute the role of the clinician but to support the most appropriate treatment decisions taken within the Multi-Disciplinary Team.
