Laser beams illuminated the night at Asian Hospital last August 28, to celebrate the completion of treatment for AHMC’s first CyberKnife® patient, heralding hope and new chances for countless patients and their families.
The patient for this historic moment is a brave and loving 8-year-old child battling meningioma, a type of tumor that develops from the meninges, the protective membranes covering the brain and spinal cord.
