The Gamma Knife is a revolutionary technology for the non-surgical treatment of brain tumors, blood vessel abnormalities and neurologic disorders. One of only five units of its kind in Pennsylvania – and the only one in Northeastern Pennsylvania – the Gamma Knife brings new hope to patients suffering from serious neurological abnormalities.

  • Non-invasive, fast and safe treatment

  • Cost effective treatment a fraction of the cost of traditional brain surgery

  • A multi-disciplinary approach to cancer treatment, involving a specially trained, highly-experienced team of surgeons, radiation oncologists, nurses and medical physicists

  • Covered by Medicare, Medicaid and most insurance plans

  • Patients usually resume normal activities within 24-48 hours after procedure
