• Severity: Medium
• Common Location: Brain surface, near skull
• Characteristics: Usually slow-growing and often benign

3. Pituitary Adenoma 🟢

• Description: Benign tumor of the pituitary gland
• Severity: Low
• Common Location: Base of skull, pituitary region
• Characteristics: Often treatable, may affect hormone production

4. No Tumor ✅

🐛 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Issue: Model not found

Solution: App runs in demo mode without model.h5
Place trained model in project root for full functionality

Issue: Upload fails

Solution: Check file size (< 25MB) and format (JPG, PNG, DICOM)
Verify file is not corrupted

Issue: Slow processing

Solution: Optimize image size before upload
Use GPU-enabled hosting for production
