Conditions Treated

The CyberKnife is FDA approved to deliver radiation treatments throughout the entire body. More than 100, 000 patients have been treated worldwide.  Many had been told that they had inoperable tumors, but were successfully treated with the CyberKnife. Not everyone is a candidate for image guided robotic radiosurgery treatment. Only a CyberKnife trained physician can best determine if a condition can be treated using the CyberKnife system.

The most common conditions that may be effectively treated with the CyberKnife are the following:

  • Malignant Tumors:Astrocytomas, Gliomas, Skull base tumors, Metastases, (brain and body), Nasopharyngeal carcinomas
  • Meningiomas:Acoustic neuromas, Schwannomas, Pituitaryadenomas, Hemangioblastomas, Craniopharyngiomas, other tumors
  • Vascular malformations: Arteriovenous malformations (AVM's) Cavernous malformations
  • Functional disorders: Trigeminal neuralgia
  • Extracranial tumors and lesions: base of skull and neck Cervical Spine, Thoracic Spine, Lumbar Spine, Pancreas, Prostate

  • Liver
  • Other lesions, tumors and conditions anywhere in the body where radiation treatment is indicated.
