| [[Supratentorial]] [[Brain Metastases]]: Located above the tentorium cerebelli, typically in the cerebral hemispheres. These are the most common and can involve the frontal, parietal, occipital, and temporal lobes. | [[Supratentorial]] [[Brain Metastases]]: Located above the tentorium cerebelli, typically in the cerebral hemispheres.

| [[Infratentorial]] [[Metastases]]: Found below the tentorium cerebelli, primarily in the cerebellum and brainstem. Less common but associated with more significant neurological impairment due to proximity to vital structures. | [[Infratentorial Metastases]]: Found below the tentorium cerebelli, primarily in the cerebellum and brainstem.
