CyberKnife Defines Radiosurgery

The CyberKnife® System from Accuray™ is the world’s most accurate radiosurgery instrument.

It establishes a new gold standard in radiosurgery by using cruise missile guidance technology to precisely treat tumors and other lesions anywhere in the body.

The CyberKnife’s flexible robotic arm provides unparalleled access to previously unreachable tumors. And, because CyberKnife is noninvasive, doctors can treat multiple lesions and tumors without making a single incision.

The CyberKnife also provides a viable option for those patients previously diagnosed with inoperable tumors.

“CyberKnife has expanded our practice by offering cranial as well as spinal radiosurgery, solidifying our hospital’s position as a tertiary referral, regional outreach center. Most importantly, we are now able to offer a safer alternative to patients who previously had either no or only high risk treatment options. If you are serious about radiosurgery, you need a dedicated system with the capabilities of the CyberKnife.”
