Gamma Knife is a treatment device with the ability to treat brain tumors, vascular malformations, and functional disorders (neurological pain and movement disorders) without the risks of open surgery such as general anesthesia, infection and bleeding. This treatment requires no cutting or incisions. The Gamma Knife uses 201 focused beams of radiation to deliver a highly therapeutic dose to a target with sub-millimeter precision. Recovery is quick, and the treatment is generally administered on an outpatient basis.
