Why is the CyberKnife® System Unique?

Patients collage 

Accuray has given cancer patients another treatment option with the development of the world’s first and only dedicated radiosurgery device: the CyberKnife Robotic Radiosurgery System. With the CyberKnife System, radiosurgery is no longer limited to treating intracranial tumors. The CyberKnife System is a viable, non-invasive alternative to surgery and is capable of treating tumors anywhere in the body with pin-point accuracy minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue and nearby critical structures, such as the spinal cord or the optic nerve.

Accurate – Enables clinicians to confidently treat tumors with minimal harm to surrounding healthy tissue by delivering high doses of radiation with sub-millimeter accuracy (within the width of a hair).

Flexible – Offers maneuverability and versatility that is unsurpassed by traditional radiation systems. By delivering radiation beams from virtually unlimited positions, the CyberKnife System can treat tumors anywhere in the body from any angle including the brain, spine, lung, liver, pancreas and prostate.

Robotic – Continually tracks tumor position, detects any tumor or patient movement and automatically corrects the treatment delivery – without the need to manually reposition the patient or interrupt the treatment, thereby slowing down the treatment process.

Beneficial – Provides a pain-free, non-invasive alternative for patients, including those diagnosed with previously inoperable or surgically complex tumors, or for patients who are looking for an alternative to surgery.
