Thank you for your interest in the Gamma Knife of Spokane. We have been in operation since June 2002 and have successfully treated hundreds of patients since that time. This machine is a dedicated neuro-radiosurgery tool that is designed to treat skull-based tumors and malformations with unmatched precision. In fact, the Gamma Knife achieves sub-millimeter accuracy.
We have a track record of successfully treating even the most difficult and challenging tumors with this non-invasive procedure. Because of our team's expertise and decades of radiation oncology and neurosurgical experience, we welcome the opportunity to serve you and your patients with this very effective technology.
