The Acoustic Neuroma Foundation's mission is to share support and information about acoustic neuromas, especially how to treat them based on hard science. An acoustic neuroma is often called a brain tumor, althought it is really a cranial nerve tumor. It occurs on the acoustic and vestibular nerves, and is more accurately called a vestibular schwannoma. There are a lot of bad studies that recommend one treatment or another. Doctors completely disagree about whether to treat small tumors with radiation or surgery, and you need to be aware of this controversy. This site focused on tracking down the best studies and the best treatments.
