CyberKnife Approved by the FDA since 2001 Nearly 30,000 patients treated worldwide More than 200 peer review papers have been published More than 80 hospitals and medical centers provide CyberKnife technology
Learn More At: How is the technology different? Advanced interactive robotics Real-time imaging Dynamic automated motion tracking Flexible and accurate linac multiple-beam radiation delivery
Learn More At: Methods for tracking motion Skull and spine tracking: bony landmarks are tracked Fiducial tracking: radio-opaque marker are placed near soft tissue targets and tracked Respiratory tracking (Synchrony): with respiration, LED’s on the exterior of the patient are correlated with the movement of the target/tumor and fiducials

Learn More At: Respiratory Tracking Beam Off Beam On Treatment Field Gating Synchrony TM Treatment beam is turned on and off as tumor enters and exits a static treatment field Dynamic treatment field follows the tumor while the treatment beam is turned on = Over-treated healthy tissue
Learn More At: Accuracy When used properly, Synchrony™ provides a degree of accuracy of better than 1.5mm –Allows reduced planning margins for lesions that move with respiration Gating and breath holding require margins of 5-10mm to compensate for setup and targeting uncertainty

Learn More At: Primary and Secondary Aims of Study This study will evaluate the technical feasibility of PBI with the CyberKnife as well as evaluate QOL issues that relate to treatment side- effects, cosmetic outcomes and patient convenience
Learn More At: Patient Eligibility Stage 0, I, II non-lobular breast cancer Cancer must be ≤ 3 cm Surgical treatment must be a lumpectomy Margins must be > 2mm for both DCIS and invasive disease Negative sentinel Lymph node(s) or an axillary dissection Lumpectomy cavity must be clearly delineated
Learn More At: Justification of Radiosurgical Dose By applying the linear-quadratic cell survival model with an alpha-beta ratio of 4, a dose of 30 Gy given in 5 stages of 6 Gy between 5 to 10 days is radiobiologically equivalent in tumor control and late breast tissue complications as the whole breast doses used by NSABP
Learn More At: Partial Breast Planning for CyberKnife The CTV is the excision rim plus a 10 mm margin in all directions The PTV is defined as the CTV plus a 5mm margin The dose is will be delivered to the % isodose prescription line
