On World Cancer Day, we’re spotlighting a tool that has changed what brain tumor treatment can look like.
Gamma Knife is available at Atlas Ambulatory Neurosurgery Center (ANSC™), located just behind our Williamsville office. It's a highly precise form of radiation that can treat certain brain & spine tumors without making an incision.
Using hundreds of focused beams of radiation that converge on a single target, Gamma Knife can treat tumors while sparing surrounding healthy brain tissue.
Treatment is outpatient and carefully planned with MRI and CT imaging, delivered by a multidisciplinary team of neurosurgeons, radiation oncologists, and neuroradiologists.
Gamma Knife may be part of care for tumors such as:
🧠 Metastatic brain tumors
🧠 Gliomas
🧠 Meningiomas
🧠 Pituitary tumors
🧠 Craniopharyngiomas
🧠 Skull base tumors
Brain tumor care is never one-size-fits-all. Technologies like Gamma Knife expand options, reduce risk, and help more patients access advanced treatment close to home.
