Dear Editor:
There is hardly a family in the Cape Fear Region that has not been

Cancer Treatment and CyberKnife
Center is to provide patients
with access to the best and most
up-to-date cancer care possible.
With a comprehensive range
of advanced treatments and
complementary medicine, Cape
Fear Valley is a hub of healing for
patients throughout the region.

our cancer center have been
in place for some 30 years, we are continually adding new services and
technology to help our patients beat cancer. Our most recent addition
is the CyberKnife®, a robotic stereotactic radiosurgery system that can
treat cancer almost anywhere in the body, including the brain, spine,
lungs, kidneys and liver. Despite its name, CyberKnife doesn't cut at all;

pinpoint accuracy to destroy cancer cells.
Our Radiation Oncology team features the latest technology and
