Radiosurgery is a non-invasive technique for treating benign and malignant conditions by using precise, targeted doses of radiation.
This type of surgery is used to treat tumors and lesions in and near the head and is often safer than traditional or open surgery.
UH Neurological Institute is the first neuroscience program in Ohio to offer both Gamma Knife and CyberKnife® in its Stereotactic Radiosurgery suite.
Gamma Knife
The most accurate form of stereotactic radiosurgery for the brain, the Gamma Knife focuses numerous beams of radiation directly on a targeted area while sparing the surrounding healthy tissue.
CyberKnife®
CyberKnife® is a painless, non-invasive technology giving patients new hope for treatment of tumors and lesions previously diagnosed as untreatable or inoperable.
