Just curious if anyone knows what the role of the neurosurgeon is in treating patients with brain/spinal tumors. Does the neurosurgeon actually oversee and coordinate the treatment of the patient (i.e. chemotherapy treatment regimens, novel therapeutic clinical trials, etc.), or is he/she strictly limited to just resecting the tumor in the OR?
