Card

Dr Alfred Haidenberger is a specialist in radiosurgery at the Cyberknife Center Salzburg, which he founded.

Dr Haidenberger treats tumor patients with the image- and robot-assisted Cyberknife system in outpatient settings, usually in just one session, at the state-of-the-art center for painless tumor surgery. This exact and highly effective treatment is an efficient alternative to conventional radiation therapy or surgery.

Cyberknife Salzburg: High-Precision Tumor Radiation with the Most Modern Technology

The Cyberknife Center Salzburg is at the forefront of modern radiosurgery in Austria. The center offers exact, non-invasive treatments for tumors throughout the body under the direction of Dr Alfred Haidenberger, a renowned radiation oncologist with over two decades of experience.

The only image-guided and robot-assisted radiosurgery center in the country is equipped with the most advanced Cyberknife system in Europe, which is only used in this form in Japan. This advanced technology makes it possible to treat tumors with sub-millimeter accuracy, resulting in effective therapy with minimal stress for the patient.

Thanks to the expertise of Dr Haidenberger and his team, patients benefit from outpatient treatments that are usually completed in just a single session.

Cyberknife for Brain Tumors: Gentle Radiosurgery without Surgery

Brain tumors are particularly challenging in medicine because the delicate brain tissue often makes surgical removal risky or impossible. The Cyberknife system offers a gentle alternative.

Thanks to its robot-assisted technology, even the most minor tumors in the brain can be precisely localized and irradiated with a focused maximum dose, killing the tumor cells without the need for surgery. Since aggressively growing tumor cells are more sensitive to the radiation dose than healthy cells, the nerve tissue around the tumor can be effectively spared using the Cyberknife.

The treatment is carried out in an outpatient setting and usually in just one session, with the patient lying comfortably throughout the entire procedure, and, unlike conventional radiation therapy, restraining is not required.

Dr Alfred Haidenberger has broad experience treating brain tumors using Cyberknife and has successfully treated numerous patients. His expertise ensures that each patient receives individual treatment based on the latest scientific findings.

State-of-the-art Cancer Treatment for Lungs, Liver & Pancreas

Conventional radiation therapy is often difficult to administer for tumors in organs such as the lungs, liver, and pancreas because they move in response to breathing. The Cyberknife at the Salzburg Center can track tumor movement in real-time and adjust the radiation, allowing precise tumor irradiation while sparing the surrounding healthy tissue. The system owes this capability to its motion-synchronized, AI-driven real-time adjustment.

Dr Haidenberger has been deeply involved in treating tumors in these organs and uses his extensive expertise to ensure the best possible therapy for each patient. His many years of experience and commitment to continuous education make him a leading expert in this field.

Many Years of Experience in the Treatment of Prostate Cancer using Cyberknife

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men. The treatment requires the highest precision to effectively destroy the tumor cells while sparing the surrounding sensitive structures, such as nerves. The Cyberknife offers an excellent solution for this.

The tumor can be targeted while the surrounding tissue remains intact to a large extent due to its ability to deliver sub-millimeter-accurate radiation. This significantly reduces drastic side effects such as incontinence and erectile dysfunction. The treatment is non-invasive, painless, and usually takes place in outpatient settings in one to five sessions.

Dr Alfred Haidenberger has successfully treated numerous patients with prostate cancer using Cyberknife. His in-depth knowledge of the technology and understanding of his patient's needs enable him to create individual treatment plans for each patient's situation.

Gentle Treatment for Recurrent Cervical Cancer

A recurrence of cervical cancer presents particular challenges for patients and doctors, especially if previous treatments have already been carried out. Cyberknife offers a practical and gentle therapy option for such cases.

Thanks to highly precise radiation therapy, recurrent tumors can be treated targeted without the need for further invasive surgery. The treatment is carried out in an outpatient setting and usually involves minimal side effects. This helps to maintain the patient's quality of life as much as possible.

Dr Alfred Haidenberger, the specialist in radiosurgery, draws on his extensive experience to provide optimal treatment for patients with recurrent cervical cancer. His empathetic approach and commitment to providing the best possible patient care ensure that each patient receives individualized care and treatment.
