St. Joseph's Gamma Knife Center in Phoenix, Arizona offers one of the safest and most effective alternatives to conventional neurosurgery available today - Gamma Knife radiosurgery. Each year approximately 400 patients with brain or spinal tumors from around the world are treated at our facility, making it one of the busiest centers in the country. This sophisticated medical tool uses multiple beams of ionizing radiation to treat brain lesions while preserving surrounding healthy tissue and accomplishes this by focusing the radiation beams on a precisely defined treatment site within the brain. Gamma Knife also can be a treatment option for patients who are unable to undergo conventional neurosurgery and for patients who need additional therapy to complement chemotherapy, radiation therapy or conventional brain surgery.
