How Gamma Knife Technology Helps with Brain Tumor Treatment
This 3D medical animation gives a brief overview of the Gamma Knife®, the types of conditions it treats and the treatment process.
The Fort Sanders Regional Gamma Knife Center features the Leksell Gamma Knife® Icon™, a non-invasive stereotactic radiosurgery procedure used to treat brain tumors and other neurological disorders.
Located at Thompson Cancer Survival Center, the Gamma Knife program uses the latest in diagnostic imaging and 3D treatment planning software to deliver finely-focused beams of gamma radiation to small targets inside the brain. The beams converge at a point to treat the affected tissue, while minimizing the damage of healthy brain tissue.
The Gamma Knife Icon is an alternative or supplemental treatment to traditional brain surgery, eliminating some of the risks of a traditional craniotomy, such as bleeding or brain damage. Neurosurgeons and radiation oncologists work together to develop an individualized treatment plan for each patient and their disease or disorder.
