Methodist Hospital

The Gamma Knife® Center at Methodist Hospital, a department of Methodist Hospital, offers non-invasive treatment of brain lesions and tumors. It is among the most advanced technology available to treat tumors. In 2010 the center was completely renovated and the newest Gamma Knife® device, the Perfexion™, was installed. The technology is complex, the results – astonishing. The newest, most advanced version of the Gamma Knife, makes the term “inoperable” obsolete. After locating tumors, specially trained surgeons focus beams of radiation from the Gamma Knife® directly to the affected area, leaving surrounding tissue untouched – without surgery and without a scalpel. Patients are able to return home the same day and resume their normal activities within days. For more information visit www.GammaKnifeSanAntonio.com
