What makes CyberKnife unique?

Total clinical accuracy:
The CyberKnife® System has proven to be the most accurate, real-time, image guided robotic radiosurgery system in the world. CyberKnife® robotic radiosurgery is so precise, radiation beams can conform to small, complex-shaped tumors while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue.

100 percent frameless:
The combination of the image-guidance system and the multi-jointed robotic arm allows the system to compensate for patient movement, sparing patients from the pain and inconvenience associated with the conventional head frame used with traditional stereotactic radiosurgery that is fixed to the patient's skull.

Full body treatment:
The CyberKnife® System is able to treat both tumors and conditions of the head and neck as well as other areas of the body such as the lung, liver, pancreas, and spine.

Painless surgery:
The CyberKnife® System allows patients to be treated in a unique radiosurgery suite where painless "surgery" is performed with no incisions, no bleeding, and in most cases no anesthesia and no recovery time.

Better quality of life, during and after treatment:
The simple outpatient CyberKnife® procedure allows patients to undergo their treatment and immediately resume previous activities.
