Yes. It is an alternative option for surgery.
As per WHO, the Brain Tumour is divided into four grades, which can only be determined after diagnosing your medical reports.
Gamma knife can be performed to remove the Brain Tumours.
- CyberKnife is designed in such a way that it can deliver the high intensity of radiations only to the target area to destroy tumours or lesions of any body part.
- It precisely targets the Tumour by using its robotic arm that can deliver highly focused beams of radiation in an otherwise untreatable or inoperable part of the body.
- The robotic arm is very flexible, making it possible to reach difficult areas like the spine, brain, spinal cord, etc. These areas cannot be operated or treated by other radiosurgery techniques.
The number of sessions required for CyberKnife depends upon the size, shape, and location of the Tumour, but mostly 1 to 5 sessions of CyberKnife are enough.
CyberKnife treatment cost estimates 6000-13000 USD.
