Gamma Knife of Spokane

The Gamma Knife of Spokane serves patients and physicians of Eastern Washington, Idaho, Montana, Alaska and Western Canada. It is the 'gold standard' for precision radiosurgery for brain tumors (metastatic tumors, gliomas, meningiomas, acoustic neuromas) and AVM's (arteriovenous malformations). GK Spokane also treats functional disorders including trigeminal neuralgia , cluster headaches and cancer-related pain, and movement disorders such as essential tremor and Parkinsonian tremor.

This non-invasive brain surgery tool isn't a knife at all - it uses precisely guided radiation to destroy tumors or block transmission of pain and tremors. Unlike other forms of radiation delivery, it has a fixed focal point and moves the head with computer-aided precision, thereby delivering sub-millimeter accuracy (.3 to .5 mm) for each isocenter. This spares healthy tissue while delivering an precise dose of radiation to the target.
