2. What is CyberKnife?
The world’s only robotic radiosurgery system, CyberKnife treats
patients with a procedure called stereotactic radiosurgery.
Stereotactic radiosurgery is a noninvasive method of treating tumors
with high-dose radiation precisely aimed from different angles.
How does CyberKnife work?
CyberKnife does not require surgery and there is no cutting
or anesthesia required. Comprised of a compact linear
accelerator - a machine that generates a radiation beam -
attached to a highly maneuverable robotic arm.
•The machine’s robotic arm moves around you, aiming and
firing targeted radiation beams from numerous angles.
•The imaging and tracking system continually updates the
tumor location throughout the treatment procedure,
compensating for patient movements like breathing.
•Treatment sessions typically last 30-90 minutes.
