State-of-the-Art Technology Makes Treatment
Comfortable and Effective
Treatment with CyberKnife® results in potentially fewer complications than invasive surgery and often allows patients to have a better quality of life during and after treatment.
Advantages of the CyberKnife® System include:
- Extremely accurate radiation targeting means higher doses of radiation can be used, offering the patient a better chance for cure
- Treats hard-to-reach tumors, many that may have been diagnosed as inoperable
- Tumors receive radiation from many angles, minimizing damage to healthy tissue
- Continually checks and compensates for any movement you make during treatments, ensuring accuracy
- Requires no metal head frame or skull pins
- Eliminates risks related to surgery, including potential infection, complication from anesthesia and post-operative bleeding
- Requires no recovery time. Most treatments are done on an outpatient basis
- Patients undergo their treatment and immediately resume normal daily activities
- Reduces pain
- Requires no or minimal sedation
