CyberKnife

In 2005, Vince Lombardi Charitable Funds made a $1 million pledge to help purchase a CyberKnife. CyberKnife technology allows for more accurate cancer treatment by performing radiosurgery procedures under real-time image guidance. It involves no cuts or incisions whatsoever but destroys diseased tissue by precisely focusing multiple beams of high-energy radiation on the tumor site. The CyberKnife is specifically designed for treating the most complex and difficult tumors - cancers of the lung, spine, pancreas or brain.
