How long does a Cyberknife treatment session take?

Asked 6 months ago
A CyberKnife treatment session typically lasts between 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the complexity of the case. The actual treatment delivery, known as a fraction, usually takes only 5 to 45 minutes. Before the treatment, imaging scans are conducted to precisely locate the target area, ensuring accurate targeting during the session. Patients are positioned comfortably on a treatment table, and the advanced robotic system then delivers high-dose radiation to the tumor or affected area with extreme precision. CyberKnife utilizes real-time imaging and tracking technology, allowing for continuous monitoring and adjustment during treatment. As a non-invasive and painless procedure, patients can generally resume their daily activities immediately after a session. The specific duration and number of sessions will be determined based on individualized treatment plans developed by our experienced medical team.
