Cyberknife Center Hamburg

Cyberknife Center Hamburg - Overview

The modern and innovative metropolis of Hamburg offers new treatment and hope for cancer.

The CyberKnife treats patients through a process called stereotactic radiosurgery, a noninvasive method of treating tumors with high-dose precisely aimed from different angles. While the name may conjure images of knives and scalpels, Cyberknife treatment does not require surgery. Treatment is painless and noninvasive, so there is no cutting or anesthesia required. CyberKnife destroys cancerous and benign tumors with high-dose, highly accurate radiation beams, while minimizing damage to the healthy tissue. Worldwide there are over 250 institutions that treat difficult-to-reach tumors that may have been impossible to treat in the past.

With its flair and its maritime charming atmosphere, Hamburg is considered as one of the most beautiful cities in Germany. Between the seaport on the Elbe river and the magnificient Alster river, Hamburg offers pure city life with not only spectacular shopping possibilities, historical and cultural variety but also a lively natural landscape.
