MIAMI, Nov. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- James. G. Schwade, M.D. announces the newly enhanced CyberKnife equipment available for cancer patients at the CyberKnife Center of Miami, (www.cyberknifemiami.com).

• Shorter and faster treatment times due to auto collimator exchange
• Flexibility in treatments due to variable opening collimator (IRIS)
• Separated image transfer functions - less interruptions
• These mean better plans with greater flexibility for physicians
• New planning algorithms & Sequential Optimization, Monte Carlo, provide for greater flexibility for physicians
