Treatment Process There are four steps to the CyberKnife treatment process.
Technology Whereas conventional radiation delivery systems often provide pre-treatment image guidance with technologies such as image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) and Cone Beam CT, CyberKnife® extends targeting accuracy beyond patient setup and maintains radiosurgical sub-millimeter accuracy throughout the entire treatment. Boston Medical Center has the newest, most advanced CyberKnife System in the region.
