Cyberknife Robotic Radiosurgery System and Prostate Cancer

I just did some quick research and this does sound promising. It is very limited in case studies. 20,000 total surgeries for ALL cancers is less than 1% of LRP's and RRP's performed. Nice job finding this though. I will continue to research this as it may be helpful to all of us. This is not mainstream but could one day get there. I always said if a system could sample tissue realtime and pathologically define the tissue, then hit it with radiation all in one motion, now we have a cool science. Sounds like McCoy on Star Trek. If this machine could get us half way there then by all means bet on it. Too early to tell. I'll keep looking. I did notice it is more used for cranial disease that elsewhere.
