Experts Discuss the Benefits of CyberKnife Treatment

Duluth, MN - Surgery without scalpels – it's possible thanks to a high-tech tool that treats tumors at the CyberKnife Center at Miller-Dwan Medical Center in Duluth, Minn.

On Tuesday, June 17, 2008, at 6:30 p.m. CDT, experts from the CyberKnife Center will host a live webcast discussing the benefits of stereotactic radiation. The CyberKnife uses data from three-dimensional scans to treat tumors and lesions anywhere in the body. It can eradicate malignant and benign tumors that were previously thought untreatable by more conventional surgical and radiation methods.

Tune in for a live Webcast discussion featuring a wide range of healthcare professionals including a radiation oncologist, medical oncologist, and a neurosurgeon, along with patients who have received CyberKnife Treatment at Miller-Dwan Medical Center. This is the seventh live Webcast from SMDC Health System in Duluth.
