If calcium is deposited in the brain it is not by glands but a result of inflammation. It would not be cancerous because it is not a result of malignant cells metastasizing; which is how cancer is defined.

Calcium deposits in the brain, also known as calcifications, are typically not caused by glands. They can be due to a variety of reasons, such as past infections, trauma, or abnormalities in calcium metabolism. In most cases, these calcifications are not cancerous, but further evaluation by a healthcare provider is recommended.

What tumor is NOT cancerous?

Answer 1A tumor that is not cancerous is benign. Benign tumors do not spread to other parts of the body.Answer 2Can I better clarify the medical terminology regarding different kinds of tumor (US spelling) or tumour (British spelling) as it is wrong to assume only if a tumor is cancerous is it serious. For example a brain tumor can be malignant (cancerous)or benign (non cancerous). Brain tumor means an abnormal growth in or on your brain. About 60% of what are termed primary brain tumors that occur in populations worldwide are known as glomas. That means a tumor that arises from brain substance, for example meningiomas arises from the meningral membranes.Primary brain tumors are sometimes cancerous, and sometimes benign. But if a primary tumor is found to be non cancerous it is still a matter of serious concern because the compression of brain tissues or nerve tracts within the vicinity of the tumor may result in loss of vision, muscle weakness ot other sensory disturbances because if the build up of pressure in the brain, whether the tumor is cancerous or non cancerous.Secondary growth tumors are known as metastases, which means spread via your bloodstream from tumors elsewhere in your body, most commonly from tumors in your lung ot breast and secondary growth tumors are always cancerous.
