Denied
The Board denied service connection for the Veteran's brain tumor, finding no causal relationship to military service or conceded toxic exposure to asbestos.
The deciding factor: The May 2025 medical opinion concluded that it was less likely than not that the Veteran's brain tumor was caused by in-service toxic exposures, including asbestos.
