+Oklahoma CyberKnife

  CyberKnife® treats patients with a procedure called stereotactic radiosurgery, a noninvasive method of treating tumors with precisely focused high-dose radiation.

  CyberKnife treatment is complete in five or fewer procedures and does not require surgery or sedation.

  A service of Hillcrest Medical Center, Oklahoma CyberKnife treats cancers of the brain, spine, pancreas, prostate, kidney, liver and lung. We also treat certain other medical conditions like trigeminal neuralgia and arteriovenous malformations.

  In the fourth quarter of 2009, our center performed the highest number of lung-cancer treatments of any CyberKnife center in the world.

  Diseases most often treated at our center include brain tumors, lung tumors and trigeminal neuralgia.
