Abstract

Brainm tumors, both benign and malignant, represent a significant and complex health chalenge due to their impact on the central nervous system. In Libya, the absence of a centralized database has hindered the ability to accurately track the incidence, outcomes, and trends of brain tumors, leading to gaps in effective management, treatment, and research. This research proposal outlines the establishment of a National Brain Tumor Registry in Libya, aimed at systematically collecting, managing, and analyzing data on brain tumor cases across the country. This initiative is intended to enhance patient care, facilitate research, and inform public health policies
