Dr. Beyerl is currently working with the revolutionary radiosurgical device, the CyberKnife®. A member of The CyberKnife® Society and Co-Director of the program at Overlook Hospital, Dr. Beyerl describes the tool as a "computer-controlled radiosurgery system that delivers radiation to tumors in the brain, spine and elsewhere in the body with millimeter accuracy." The CyberKnife® enables physicians to treat certain previously inoperable tumors.
