Clinical Applications
In 2001 the CyberKnife® System received FDA clearance for treatment of tumors anywhere in
the body that radiation was indicated. Since then CyberKnife users have developed and continue
to develop protocols for treating tumors in the brain, spine, lungs, liver, pancreas,
kidney, and prostate. In these pages we describe these applications, and how CyberKnife users have
approached them. As these clinical developments evolve so will our technology; the evolution of
the technology will be driven clinically so that patients continue to receive the best, least invasive
radiosurgical treatment.
