Opinions re: CyberKnife
Opinions re: CyberKnife
Just had a consultation with my Urologist.
PSA was 3.7 a month ago and had been increasing the last 2 years from
1.8-2.7.
DRE showed nothing . Had trans-rectal ultrasound with biopsies taken.
Detected Prostate Cancer. Have Gleason of 6 and TNM of T1c.
Dr. explained various approaches, rad. prostactectomy (no way!),
hormonal, radioactive seeding, radiation treatment and CyberKnife. He
is a surgeon by trade but says if he were in my situation he would take
the CyberKnife approach. Says it is very highly accurate and has
virtually no side-effects.
Anyone have experiences with CyberKnife treatment?
Thanks in advance.
