A New Hope for Cancer – Introducing the First-Ever CyberKnife® in the Philippines

Asian Hospital and Medical Center proudly brings you the CyberKnife®, a groundbreaking radiotherapy machine dedicated to stereotactic radiation treatment. Setting new standards in cancer care, this revolutionary technology marks a significant milestone in the Philippines.

What is CyberKnife®?

The CyberKnife® is non-invasive treatment designed for both cancerous and non-cancerous tumors, as well as other medical conditions requiring radiation therapy. Unlike conventional radiotherapy systems, CyberKnife® delivers precise and accurate treatments, reducing damage to healthy tissues and minimizing side effects.

What Types of Cancer Can CyberKnife® Treat?

CyberKnife® is highly versatile and effective in targeting a wide range of cancers, including but not limited to:

• Brain Lesions: Both malignant and benign, including meningiomas, arteriovenous malformations (AVMS) brain metastasis, spread from other cancers to the brain. 

• Lung Cancer: Treats early-stage lung cancer and metastatic lesions with exceptional accuracy.

• Prostate Cancer: Offers precise treatment while minimizing side effects in 5 sessions. 

• Liver Cancer: Effective for both primary and metastatic liver tumors.

• Pediatric Cancer: high-dose radiation to pediatric tumors while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissues, making it effective for brain, spine, and certain soft tissue cancers with fewer side effects.

• Spinal Tumors: Non-invasive treatment for tumors in sensitive spinal areas and (bone metastasis) spread from other cancer to the bone

• Head and Neck Cancer: Re-irradiation 

• Pancreatic Cancer: Targets tumors in challenging locations with precision.

• Kidney Cancer: Non-invasive option for primary or metastatic kidney tumors.

• Oligometastasis: Cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. 
   

Key benefits of CyberKnife® treatment:

1. High precision:
   Utilizes real-time image guidance to track tumor movement during treatment, ensuring radiation is delivered directly to the target area. 

2. Non-invasive:
   No incisions or anesthesia required, making it a comfortable treatment option. 

3. Short treatment duration:
   Typically involves only a few sessions, lasting around 30-90 minutes each. 

4. Minimal side effects:
   Due to the precise targeting, healthy tissue is largely spared, minimizing potential side effects. 

5. Outpatient procedure:
   Patients can usually return to normal activities immediately after treatment. 

6. Suitable for challenging tumors:
   Can treat tumors located near critical structures or those that move with breathing.

Why Choose CyberKnife® at Asian Hospital and Medical Center?
