"Following early stage prostate cancer diagnosis men have a variety of treatment options from which to choose. CyberKnife prostate SBRT is increasingly being selected by men with low- or intermediate-risk disease who opt for treatment with radiation therapy," said Fabienne Hirigoyenberry-Lanson, VP Global Medical and Scientific Affairs of Accuray. "This new CyberKnife research adds to the most extensive compendium of published prostate SBRT studies available in the industry. The data continue to validate this precise and accurate approach to the treatment of prostate cancer which offers minimal disruption to patients' daily lives."
