The World’s Most Accurate Radiosurgery Device CyberKnife Defines Radiosurgery
The CyberKnife® System from Accuray™ is the world’s most accurate radiosurgery instrument.
It establishes a new gold standard in radiosurgery by using cruise missile guidance technology to precisely treat tumors and other lesions anywhere in the body.
The CyberKnife’s flexible robotic arm provides unparalleled access to previously unreachable tumors. And, because CyberKnife is noninvasive, doctors can treat multiple lesions and tumors without making a single incision.
The CyberKnife also provides a viable option for those patients previously diagnosed with inoperable tumors.
From John R. Adler, Jr., MD, the inventor of CyberKnife and Stanford Professor of Neurosurgery, speaking about when he first envisioned the CyberKnife concept as a non-invasive alternate to surgery:
"I went from believing I'd seen the best to a few months later working with a radically different concept of what surgery was, seeing identical patients being treated, yet they would walk out of the hospital a couple of days later with hardly a scar. It defied anything I'd ever been told... I quickly came to realize this was the future."
