Gamma Knife Radiosurgery Cost in India

Gammaknife Radiosurgery

Gamma Knife radiosurgery is a type of radiation therapy that is used to treat tumors, vascular malformations and other abnormalities in the brain. Also, just like other forms of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), it is not a surgery in the traditional sense because there is no incision. Instead, Gamma Knife radiosurgery uses specialized equipment to focus about 200 tiny beams of radiation on a tumor with sub-millimeter accuracy.

The difference between Gamma knife and Cyberknife lies on the fact that Gamma Knife can only target brain or cervical spine cancer with a single treatment of high-dose radiation, whereas, CyberKnife is able to treat cancer anywhere on the body in one to five radiation treatments.
