Seattle CyberKnife Center makes radiosurgery
an option for more patients.
 |
"On January 7, 2004, I was notified of prostate cancer... My options included surgery, seed implants, external radiation and the utilization of the CyberKnife. I chose CyberKnife as it was the most non-invasive and posed the least amount of adversarial effects after the treatment. Within two months or less, there were not any other signs or residual effects from the CyberKnife treatment. I definitely recommend this procedure for prostate cancer."

Life may suddenly feel overwhelming when a tumor is diagnosed. These feelings are compounded when the tumor or lesion is inoperable or in a hard-to-reach area.
Seattle CyberKnife Center at Swedish Medical Center brings new hope to people dealing with cancerous and non-cancerous tumors as well as other select medical conditions. CyberKnife is the first radiosurgery system so precise it's able to target small and complex tumors and lesions anywhere in the body, including the neck, spine, lung and prostate. Thanks to CyberKnife, tumors that were once considered inoperable may now be treatable. |
