lung cancer cells are carried to brain by blood strearms and gets established as metastatic one, starts to in crease in size . it all depends on the area the location , either in cortex(periphery) of the brain or in the depth of medulla of the brain. the cortex metastasis usually make more sign and symptom with head ach and other signs like vomiting and depending up on the area of location it will act like a space occupying one. with pupillar findings since they are, helpless in expressing their feeling--nobody can under stand what is going on in them
