Scientists Stunned Upon Discovering Glioblastoma Erodes Skull Tissue

However, a recent study has found that GBM erodes the skulls of its victims and this could partially explain why the current therapies have had dismal success rates against the tumors. For their study, the team analyzed scans of the skulls of mice afflicted by two types of glioblastoma. They found that the skulls were thinner than they should be. On examining scans of humans with GBM, they found altered skull thickness, especially in the areas where bones fused. The study…
