Cyberknife is a form of Stereotactic Radiosurgery. The term Stereotactic Radiosurgery means the delivery of precise doses of radiation to very specific targets in the body. Traditionally, this was limited to only specific tumors and areas of the brain. The Cyberknife provides precise stereotactic radiation to any area of the body.
