CyberKnife Overview
645 North Arlington Avenue, Suite 120, Reno NV 89503 775-348-990 RenoCyberKnife.com
®
The CyberKnife treats patients through a
process called stereotactic radiosurgery,
a noninvasive method of treating tumors
with high-dose radiation precisely aimed
from different angles.
CyberKnife treatment does not require
surgery. Treatment is painless and
noninvasive, so there’s no cutting or
anesthesia required. CyberKnife’s
pinpoint accuracy allows our physicians
to treat difficult-to-reach tumors that
may have been impossible to treat in
the past. By delivering high-dose
r a d i a t i o n f r o m p r e c i s e a n g l e s ,
CyberKnife also significantly reduces
treatment time for the patient.
Most patients go home right after
CyberKnife treatment and immediately
resume normal activities. There may be
side effects, such as fatigue, but these
are usually minor and temporary.
