CyberKnife uses imaging software to track and continually adjust treatment for any movement of the patient or tumor. The system will allow you to breathe normally and remain comfortable during your treatments.

CyberKnife’s robotic maneuverability allows your physician to deliver a highly individualized treatment. With a linear accelerator mounted on a flexible robotic arm, the clinician can select from thousands of different angles from which to deliver radiation treatments.

Depending on the type of tumor, you will likely need only one to five treatments. With other radiation systems, you could require dozens of treatments spread out over several weeks. CyberKnife patients routinely report that they have minimal side effects from their treatment, and in most cases, they can immediately return to their normal daily activities.

CyberKnife operates on a fully integrated closed loop system. Each function works in unison to ensure the safest possible patient experience.

CyberKnife can treat moving tumors with pinpoint accuracy that is unmatched by other radiosurgery systems. CyberKnife can essentially “paint” your tumor with a high-dose of radiation by targeting the tumor from almost every conceivable angle.

The X-rays in the treatment room are constantly taking pictures of the tumor, comparing its actual location to the treatment plan, and instantly reporting it back through a sophisticated software program to the robot. The robot responds to the new location and instantly adjusts the beam to accurately target the tumor. This unique tracking capability results in an extremely accurate delivery of radiation, sparing your surrounding healthy tissue and critical organs from damage.
