This session will explore the intersection of psychiatric and neurological symptomatology in patients with brain tumors. We will examine how tumor location influences clinical presentation, review evidence-based approaches for identifying psychiatric red flags that warrant neuroimaging, and discuss integrated treatment strategies that address both neurological and psychiatric dimensions. The session will also provide practical frameworks for interdisciplinary collaboration between psychiatrists, neurologists, and other specialists to improve diagnostic accuracy and patient outcomes.
