The CyberKnife Institute at Mercy Hospital, Miami’s first hospital-based
CyberKnife® Robotic Radiosurgery System, will bring new hope to patients
with inoperable or surgically complex tumors when it opens its doors
January of 2010. The CyberKnife® Robotic Radiosurgery System, the latest
version in the CyberKnife product line, is a non-invasive alternative to
surgery for treatment of both cancerous and non-cancerous tumors
anywhere in the body, including the prostate, lung, brain, spine, liver,
pancreas and kidney.
“The CyberKnife system is very unique and sets itself
apart from any other similar treatment. It delivers beams of high dose
radiation to tumors with pin-point accuracy”
“The CyberKnife Institute at Mercy Hospital will put us in the forefront
of non-invasive radiation oncology,” said John C. Johnson, President &
CEO at Mercy Hospital. “With this new state-of-the-art technology, Mercy
Hospital will be able to provide quality care to patients who at some
point had lost all hope.”
