>>Denver CyberKnife Aids in Colorado’s Economic Recovery by Creating 8 New Jobs

Denver, CO, July 08, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Denver CyberKnife, the state-of-the-art treatment device for cancer and tumors throughout the body has aided the economic recovery in Denver through the creation of 8 new jobs. Denver’s first CyberKnife was installed in late spring 2009 and was clinically operational in early June. Although Denver CyberKnife is located in a brand new building and boasts the latest technology, the clinical staff is one of the most experienced in the world. Dr. Gregg Dickerson, Steve Humphries, and Mark Post serve as the radiation oncologist, medical physicist, and radiation therapist, respectively; these professionals have over 15 years of combined CyberKnife experience, making Denver CyberKnife one of the most tenured centers in the world.

Mark Frank, Chief Administrator of Denver CyberKnife, is very happy to be able to be a part of providing the CyberKnife as a community resource. “The CyberKnife System is the ideal radiosurgical tool given its flexibility and great range of clinical applications,” he stated. “In addition to proven effectiveness in treating tumors throughout the body, one of our most important benefits is patient comfort. By eliminating the use of a head or body frame, patient discomfort is significantly reduced. We are very pleased to bring this technology to our patient, as well as do our part to bolster the local economy.”
