Benefits of CyberKnife Treatment

Surgery without a scalpel -- it's possible thanks to a high tech tool that treats tumors at the CyberKnife Center at Miller-Dwan Medical Center in Duluth, Minn. The public will get an opportunity to learn more about the benefits of stereotactic radiosurgery during a live webcast

The CyberKnife uses extremely precise beams of radiation, combined with data from three-dimensional scans, to target tumors and lesions all over the body. It can eradicate malignant and benign tumors that were previously thought untreatable by more conventional surgical and radiation methods.
