Redefining Radiosurgery This in depth video on the CyberKnife System gives definitive clinical, hospital and patient benefits as compared to conventional radiation therapy and radiosurgery systems.

Video News Release

Full body capability & staged treatment

Published studies have shown that frameless CyberKnife radiosurgery is as accurate – if not more so – as frame-based radiosurgery.

This is especially beneficial for treating lesions near sensitive structures and larger tumours because it better protects surrounding healthy tissue.

Because no frame is required it can also perform “hypo-fractionated” or staged radiosurgery, where the total radiation dose is divided into 3-5 smaller doses.

The ability to correct for patient movement during treatment avoids the pain and inconvenience of a conventional head frame, that must be fixed to the skull with screws.

CyberKnife is able to deliver precise, high-dose radiation not just to lesions in the brain but to the spine and to other organs throughout the body.

Treatment is painless so there is no need for anaesthesia in most cases*. There is no surgical incision so no risk of infections and reduced risk of complications compared to traditional open surgery. After treatment there is no recovery time so you simply resume normal activities.
