What Types of Cancer Treatments Utilize Robotic Positioning Systems?
Robotic positioning systems are used in various types of cancer treatments, including:
Radiation Therapy: Technologies like the CyberKnife and TrueBeam use robotic positioning to deliver high doses of radiation precisely to the tumor. Surgical Oncology: Robotic-assisted surgeries, such as those performed with the da Vinci Surgical System, allow for minimally invasive procedures with enhanced precision. Biopsy Procedures: Robotic systems can guide needles accurately for biopsy procedures, ensuring that samples are taken from the correct location.
