Brief Answer:
Please see as below

Detailed Answer:
From your question I am assuming that you already been diagnosed with a brain tumor? If so, then the scan must be post treatment? In such case, if there had been anything of concern they would have told you.

If, however the brain tumor is your assumption, again I wouldn't worry, unless your doctor informs you about a negative result of the scan.

Headaches can be due to a lot of other reasons, none of them being a malignancy. Until you have had a complete examination I don't recommend you jump into conclusions. Let me know how the appointment with your doctor went.

Wishing you good health and all the best.
