CyberKnife Treatment Center

CyberKnife is an entirely new approach to radiosurgery, offering qualified patients with tumors new hope, and a painless, non-invasive alternative to open surgery.

The CyberKnife uses image-guided robotics to destroy tumors (cancerous and benign) and other lesions in the head, neck, spine and areas throughout the body that may be considered inoperable or untreatable with conventional surgery or other radiosurgery systems. Tumors are targeted with beams of high-energy radiation so precise, they can match the shape of small complex tumors located in critical structures, while preserving normal tissue nearby.

CyberKnife Treatment Center

Baptist Health Lexington's CyberKnife Treatment Center is a multi-specialty center focused on bringing the best care and the highest technological advances for the treatment of both cancerous and benign tumors, and various disease processes using CyberKnife Radiosurgery.
