What is Gamma Knife Radio Surgery ?

The Model C Gamma Knife is the most sophisticated version of a 20-ton device which uses radiation beams rather than traditional neurosurgical instruments to successfully treat a variety of neurological problems. Gamma knife radiosurgery is safe, effective and non-invasive treatment for tumors and vascular malformations of the brain, as well as certain functional disorders. Unlike conventional surgery, treatment with the Gamma Knife requires no surgical incision and causes minimal patient discomfort. Prolonged hospital stays for recovery from radiosurgery are not required.
