Neuro-oncology is a growing new subspeciality with a strong interdisciplinary character. This position paper explains the role of neurology in the multidisciplinary field of neurosurgeons, radiotherapists and general oncologists, dealing with neuro-oncological patients. The paper delineates the varied spectrum of the field of neuro-oncology which expands from primary brain tumours, to metastatic and non-metastatic effects of systemic cancer on the central and peripheral nervous system, neurotoxicity due to cancer treatment and issues of quality of life. It has been written by the scientific neuro-oncology panel of the European Federation of Neurological Societies (EFNS) to delineate the situation of neuro-oncology in Europe, and facilitate the understanding and implementation of this subspeciality in the future.
神经肿瘤学是一个不断发展的新兴亚专业，具有很强的跨学科性质。本立场文件解释了神经病学在神经外科医生、放疗科医生和普通肿瘤内科医生组成的多学科领域中，针对神经肿瘤患者所发挥的作用。该文件描绘了神经肿瘤学领域广泛的范畴，其涵盖了从原发性脑肿瘤，到系统性癌症对中枢和周围神经系统的转移及非转移影响、癌症治疗导致的神经毒性以及生活质量问题。它由欧洲神经科学学会联合会（EFNS）的科学神经肿瘤学小组撰写，旨在描绘欧洲神经肿瘤学的现状，并促进该亚专业在未来的理解与实践。
