Why Choose Gamma Knife?

Why Choose Gamma Knife The Gamma Knife offers an important treatment option for certain neurological disorders and brain tumors, especially for patients with inoperable or surgically complex tumors, or those who seek an alternative to conventional brain surgery.

Gamma Knife treatment also carries much less risk for complications than conventional surgery, and it’s typically about half the cost of surgery. Gamma Knife offers several benefits for patients, particularly in regards to quality-of-life issues that may be dramatically impacted by open skull surgery.

Key Advantages of Gamma Knife:

Treats patients in only one session
No surgical incisions, no blood loss and virtually painless
Outpatient procedure with little recovery time and minimal side effects
Accuracy and precision minimizes radiation exposure to healthy tissue surrounding a tumor site
