Body Gamma Knife

The term radiosurgery (known as single fraction radiosurgery ) was defined one half century ago to characterize the method of destroying diseased or dysfunctional tissue with a single large dose of irradiation delivered through stereotactically directed narrow radiation beams.Body Gamma Knife is one of methods to deliver stereotactic irradiation. Prior to the development of the Body Gamma Knife, the traditional treatment for abnormal areas in the body such as tumors was surgery, intensive radiation therapy or a combination of both. The Body Gamma Knife offers another option, which allows for the safe and highly effective treatment of problem areas in the body without incision.

The Body Gamma Knife is a noninvasive surgical instrument which is developed by OUR International Scientific & Technological Development Co,Ld. It has been used clinically since 1998 with highly sophisticated computer software through which it pinpoints body lesions with exquisite accuracy.

Elegant in its simplicity yet sophisticated in design and performance,the Body Gamma Knife allows the surgeon to operate on body problems with radiation instead of a operation. Using highly sophisticated 3-dimensional computerized dose of radiation to a target within body by focusing gamma rays from 30 separate and rotating sources on the same percise point. The dose is delivered in a manner that conforms precisely to the location, size and shape of the target, thereby destroying it while protecting the surrounding normal body tissue, Patients do not experience pain and are free to resume their normal lifestyle and activeties the day following treatment.
