Tumor. It's a frightening word, especially when it's used to describe your health, or the health of someone you care about. It can be even more frightening if the tumor is difficult to treat.
What is the CyberKnife System? The CyberKnife® Robotic Radiosurgery System is a non-invasive alternative to surgery for the treatment of both cancerous and non-cancerous tumors anywhere in the body. The treatment - which delivers beams of high dose radiation to tumors with extreme accuracy - offers new hope to patients.
Cyberknife provides a pain-free, non-surgical option for patients who have inoperable or surgically complex tumors, or who may be looking for an alternative to surgery.
What areas of the body can CyberKnife treat? CyberKnife can treat tumors or lesions at any body site, including the skull base, brain, spine, lung, liver, pancreas, prostate, bladder, kidney, cervix and uterus.
What are CyberKnife treatments like? CyberKnife treatments are not invasive, with no incisions or blood loss. Most patients are treated in one to five treatments, each lasting 45 to 90 minutes per tumor. Most patients go home the same day with minimal to no side effects.
