KIMS Hospital has unveiled Gamma Knife Centre for non-invasive brain treatment in Hyderabad. The newly launched facility is poised to transform the way complex brain disorders are treated, offering patients a safer, faster, and highly precise alternative to traditional brain surgery.
Gamma Knife radiosurgery is globally recognized for its ability to treat brain conditions without the need for a surgical incision. It uses highly focused beams of radiation to target and treat abnormalities deep within the brain with sub-millimeter accuracy.
The procedure is painless, bloodless, and typically performed on an outpatient basis, with most patients returning home the same day. The advanced technology is especially effective in treating conditions such as brain metastasis (both benign and malignant), arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), acoustic neuromas, pituitary tumors, and functional disorders like trigeminal neuralgia and epilepsy.
Dr Bollineni Bhaskar Rao, Chairman and Managing Director of KIMS Hospital, said, ‘We are proud to bring South India’s most advanced Gamma Knife Centre to KIMS Hospital, marking a new era in non-invasive brain treatment. By eliminating the need for open surgery, we are offering safer and faster recovery options for complex neurological conditions. This launch further strengthens Hyderabad’s position as a hub for advanced medical innovation.’
The new Gamma Knife Centre is equipped with the latest model of the technology, supported by an expert team of neurosurgeons, radiation oncologists, and medical physicists trained in advanced radiosurgery.
