CyberKnife® Radiosurgery

Fast, precise cancer treatment—without a hospital stay

Capital Radiosurgery Centers (CRC) offers CyberKnife® radiosurgery, a pain-free, non-surgical, outpatient treatment that delivers highly focused radiation with exceptional precision—providing an effective option for patients with complex or inoperable tumors, or for those seeking a non-invasive alternative to surgery. CRC is one of the few facilities in the Baltimore region equipped with CyberKnife® M6 technology.


How CyberKnife Works

CyberKnife® delivers targeted radiation beams to a tumor while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissue. Real-time imaging tracks tumor movement during treatment, allowing radiation delivery to adjust automatically as needed. CyberKnife® may be recommended as an alternative to open surgery, when clinically appropriate.


What to Expect

CyberKnife® treatment is an outpatient procedure, typically completed in one to five sessions, depending on diagnosis and clinical indication. Each session usually lasts 30 minutes to one hour. Treatment is painless and without anesthesia. Most patients return to normal activities shortly after each session.

Treatment Planning

Treatment planning includes CT imaging and, in some cases, MRI. For certain tumors, small markers may be placed prior to treatment to assist with precise targeting.
Your care team will review preparation instructions and answer questions before and after each treatment session.


Insurance Coverage

CyberKnife® SBRT treatment is covered by many insurance plans. Our team can assist with coverage verification and financial questions.
