Since January 2017 International Reference Centre of Accuray

Over 7.000 patients were treated at the Munich Cyberknife Center in 2017. The main indications were acoustic neuromas, meningiomas and malignant melanomas of the eye (uveal melanoma). Much of the patients were treated in close consultation with the colleagues of the University of Munich.

• Appointment as International Reference Center of the manufacturer Accuray.
• Awarded for quality and highest standard nearly 7,000 cyberknife treatments performed by tumors and metastases.

20 years of experience with radiosurgery

Doctors at the center offer more than 20 years of experience in radiosurgery and more than 10,000 radiosurgical treatments (Cyberknife and Gammaknife). Around 200 publications and articles by physicians from Cyberknife Zentrum München document data, among others. on the Precision, Efficacy, Reliability, and Patient Comfort of Cyberknife Tumor Treatment.

The latest InCise 2 Multileaf Collimator is in operation for the first time, allowing a wider range of tumors to be treated and patients benefiting from even shorter treatment times. For patients with tumors / metastases in the kidney, Cyberknife is an effective method that simultaneously preserves renal function, according to recent publication.

New studies confirm the safety of the Cyberknife method

In neurosurgery, the cyberknife method has already been successfully established. First scientific publication on frameless radiosurgical treatment of choroidal melanoma using robotic technology (20 patients) shows that cyberknife increases safety and comfort for tumor patients. The world’s largest study proves the safe and effective treatment of spinal tumors without metal markers using CyberKnife in Munich (107 patients).
