Light micrograph section through a sample of human brain tissue showing an astrocytoma. Astrocytoma is a type of cancer that can occur in the brain or spinal cord. It begins in cells called astrocytes that support nerve cells. Some astrocytomas grow very slowly, while others can be aggressive and grow more quickly. Astrocytomas that form in the brain can cause seizures, headaches and nausea. | |
