Cyberknife

So, a while back someone posted that they had an oncologist that was willing to go outside the norm and provide Cyberknife in the pelvic area on soft tissue. Am I remembering that correctly and if what would be the doctors name?

Not sure who you mean or what you mean, but SBRT has often been used on the pelvic lymph node area.

Cyberknife is SBRT Radiation and used often. Nanoknife is a form of surgery using Irreversible Electro Proation. Is that what you meant?

Dr Jonathon Coleman at MSKCC is doing the first human trial (phase 1), but only on intermediate stage PCa.

Are you interested in SBRT or in Nanoknife?

I may do SBRT after my 68GA PSMA PET scan if it is feasible and required (if i have active mets) We will see soon.

You can only do cyber knife (SBRT) if you can see the active mets.
