The CyberKnife® Radiosurgery Solution: Early stage Bronchogenic Carcinoma
Respiratory tumor motion
The CyberKnife® device is the only radiosurgery or radiotherapy device that tracks and treats a moving tumor throughout the entire respiratory cycle (15). This creates a dynamic therapeutic volume that tracks in tandem with the target lesion, further enabling target volume margin reduction to a unique degree compared with other devices.
