Opening the Door to New Treatment

“CyberKnife has expanded our
oncology practice by offering
whole body radiosurgery, allowing
us to treat patients we were unable
to treat before and improving the
quality and efficacy of treatments
being given today.”

Robotic flexibility, isocentric and non-isocentric treatment delivery, and dynamic motion compensation allow the CyberKnife System to treat a variety of tumors and conditions not treatable with traditional therapy:

  • Complex tumors requiring highly conformal treatments
  • Previously treated local recurrences
  • Tumors that move with respiration
  • Medically inoperable lesions
