Treat Cancer with Painless Precision

At Columbus CyberKnife, we treat several different types of conditions including; malignant and benign tumors in the brain, spine, lung, liver, pancreas, prostate, kidney and eye, trigeminal neuralgia, and arteriovenous malformation using advanced radiation technology. Our team of medical specialists collaborates to develop a customized treatment plan for your

specific diagnosis. The CyberKnife® Robotic Radiosurgery System is a painless, non-surgical, outpatient treatment with minimal to no side effects. CyberKnife delivers very high doses of radiation to cancerous and noncancerous tumors with extreme accuracy. The System allows physicians to zero in on the target tumor and irradiate it without harming the surrounding healthy tissue. As a result, CyberKnife treatment is more comfortable for patients, radiation is delivered more accurately, and treatments can be completed in one to five sessions, allowing you to dedicate less time and stress to cancer treatment and more time to live your life to the fullest. If you are a patient, potential patient, friend, or family member of a patient, or just wanting some information about Columbus CyberKnife, you’ve come to the right place. On this page, we will share information about Columbus CyberKnife, news from our hospital partner, community events, important cancer-related news and research, and much more. We also hope this page can serve as a resource to connect with others and share your story.

Our center treats brain tumors with the CyberKnife® Robotic Radiosurgery System. CyberKnife painlessly delivers precise beams of high-dose radiation to brain tumors and lesions, without incisions, hospitalization, or long recovery time. It is a non-invasive alternative to brain cancer surgery and can be used for brain tumors that are considered inoperable because of their location in the head, for those patients who cannot undergo brain cancer surgery due to their poor medical condition, or who refuse surgery.
