CyberKnife: what should you ask?
Understand radiotherapy options before focusing on a device name. Doctors assess location, prior treatment, and the care goal.
Understand the topic
CyberKnife is an image-guided robotic stereotactic radiotherapy system. The name does not mean surgery with a knife; the clinical team determines the radiation plan and suitability.
Three things to discuss
Bring available recent imaging and radiology reports.
If you had radiotherapy, ask which dose and treatment-area records to bring.
Ask about alternatives, nearby tissue risks, visit numbers, and a written estimate.
Keep a preparation checklist
