AUSTIN CYBERKNIFE

Fight cancer with the most current technology available at Austin Cyberknife.

Central Texas Cancer Centers is proud to staff the only CyberKnife in Central Texas, five days a week with our experienced team of Radiation Oncologists. Austin CyberKnife offers the latest evolution in radiation therapy, allowing application of high dose radiation with near-surgical precision. A compact linear accelerator mounted on a robotic arm delivers a concentrated beam to the affected areas, which are targeted through advanced image-guidance cameras. The result is minimal damage to healthy tissue, few to no side effects, and no recovery time. Patients with recurrent cancer or metastatic tumors that have spread to other areas of the body or those whose health needs would be better served by an alternative to surgery or conventional radiation therapy should consider CyberKnife. Schedule a consultation today to see if our radiation oncologists recommend CyberKnife as part of your treatment plan.
