CyberKnife radiosurgery treatment for prostate cancer is rapid, effective and has no side effects, with the added benefit of being non-invasive.

Main Content

Prostate Cancer is diagnosed in more than a quarter of a million men each year in the U.S. Treatment options in existence which are non-invasive with little to no side effects are practically none. CyberKnife treatment for prostate cancer literally kills the cancer cells with a precisely targeted beam of radiation that does not affect surrounding tissue or organs.

CyberKnife Treatment requires:

• No incision
• No blood
• No anesthesia
• No pain
• No recovery or rehabilitation time

Incorporating a compact, lightweight linear accelerator mounted on a robotic arm, the CyberKnife provides unparalleled flexibility in targeting tumors and lesions. Advanced image guidance technology tracks patient and target position during treatment, ensuring sub millimeter accuracy.

The CyberKnife with its Dynamic Tracking Software is cleared by the FDA to provide radio-surgery for lesions anywhere in the body when radiation treatment is indicated. The CyberKnife has often been used to radio-surgically treat otherwise un-treatable tumors or inoperable tumors. The system treats tumors at body sites unreachable by other stereotactic systems.
