Treatment
¡ CyberKnife treats patients through stereotactic radiosurgery, a nonsurgical process that attacks tumors with a high-dose, highly accurate radiation beam.
¡ The pinpoint accuracy minimizes damage to healthy tissue and can reach hard-to-reach tumors.
¡ Treatment is done in five or fewer outpatient sessions and does not require any incision or anesthesia.
