Conditions treated

Exclusively for the brain
Gamma Knife stereotactic radiosurgery is a computer-guided treatment that delivers highly focused radiation to tumours and lesions in the brain.
The clinical goal of Gamma Knife surgery is to destroy the DNA of the tumour cells, prevent growth and achieve permanent local control.
It is a proven alternative to traditional brain surgery and whole brain radiation therapy, especially when treating difficult, complex brain conditions.
