b) Brain tumor
A brain tumor is an abnormal growth or mass of cells in or around your brain. Brain tumors range in size from very small to very large. The size of the brain tumor could become quite large before the tumor is detected. The cause of most brain tumors is unknown, though up to 4% of them may be caused by CT scan radiation. Brain tumors are dangerous because they can put pressure on healthy parts of the brain or spread into those areas.
