New Hope for the Fight Against Cancer
Hope. It’s what cancer patients and their families at the Martha Siekman Cancer Center at Appleton Medical Center are experiencing thanks to the new CyberKnife Radiosurgery System.
CyberKnife Radiosurgery is a revolutionary form of cancer treatment that’s painless and noninvasive. That means no surgery is required. The CyberKnife system delivers precise radiation beams that kill cancer cells. There’s also less risk of damage to surrounding healthy tissues.
CyberKnife’s state-of-the art precision allows it to treat tumors anywhere in the body, including locations unreachable by surgery. Because radiation is delivered so accurately, patients who have received full doses of radiation from other treatments can still use CyberKnife. CyberKnife’s short treatment times and lower risk of side effects mean patients usually can immediately return to their normal lives after each treatment.
