Device name
CyberKnife® System
Description
The CyberKnife® Treatment Delivery System is indicated for stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), also known as 'precision radiotherapy.' It delivers treatment with robotic, sub-millimeter precision and incorporates AI-driven, real-time target tracking with dynamic delivery.
During treatment, most tumors can move due to respiration, organ shifts, or patient movements. The CyberKnife® imaging system and robotic technology track tumor movements throughout the entire treatment, ensuring sub-millimeter accuracy (as thin as a hair). This precision allows for high-dose delivery to the target while minimizing exposure to healthy tissues, reducing the number of treatment sessions (hypofractionation), and lessening patient hospital visits. This is advantageous for both patients and the healthcare system.
The CyberKnife® System can be used for various conditions across the body, including (but not limited to) brain metastases, vestibular schwannomas, skull base tumors, gliomas, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, meningiomas, pituitary adenomas, arteriovenous malformations, cavernous malformations, trigeminal neuralgia, and tumors of the neck, spine, prostate, breast, pancreas, liver, lungs, ovaries, and bladder.
