What Makes the CyberKnife® Robotic Radiosurgery System Unique?

With the CyberKnife System, radiosurgery is no longer limited to treating intracranial tumors. The CyberKnife Robotic Radiosurgery System is a viable, noninvasive alternative to surgery and is capable of treating tumors anywhere in the body with pinpoint accuracy, minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue and nearby critical structures, such as the spinal cord or the optic nerve.

CyberKnife Radiosurgery Advantages

Preciso - Permite que los médicos traten con confianza tumores reduciendo al mínimo los daños al tejido sano circundante, mediante de entregas de altas dosis de radiación con precisión submilimétrica (dentro del ancho de un cabello).

Flexible — Offers maneuverability and versatility that is unsurpassed by traditional radiation systems. Al entregar rayos de radiación desde posiciones virtualmente ilimitadas, el Sistema CyberKnife puede tratar tumores en cualquier parte del cuerpo desde cualquier ángulo, incluido el cerebro, la columna, los pulmones, el hígado, el páncreas y la próstata.

Robotic — Continually tracks tumor position, detects any tumor or patient movement and automatically corrects the treatment delivery — without the need to manually reposition the patient or interrupt the treatment, thereby slowing down the treatment process.

Beneficial — Provides a virtually pain-free, noninvasive alternative for patients, including those diagnosed with previously inoperable or surgically complex tumors, or for patients who are looking for an alternative to surgery.
