Introduction to CyberKnife® Radiosurgery

The CyberKnife® System is a non-invasive robotic radiosurgery instrument that is revolutionising the way cancers are treated.

The key to CyberKnife® surgery is the delivery of the right dose of radiation to a very precise area whilst minimising the damaging effects on normal tissue. 

What makes the CyberKnife® System unique is that it can be used in many cases as an alternative to conventional invasive surgery.  It is so accurate that it is now possible to treat tumours previously thought to be untreatable.  See conditions treatable with CyberKnife®.  In addition, major operations such as lung and liver resections, removal of pancreas and prostatectomy now have a viable alternative with CyberKnife®.

CyberKnife® is in clinical use throughout the world with over 100,000 patient treatments conducted to date.
