Fun with Cyberknife
« on: November 08, 2009, 02:32:34 pm »
This video scores pretty high on the geek-meter, but it does show how a Cyberknife machine moves, so it is nominally instructional.  :D

Having a geek son, I found this really funny ...... but also an opportunity to see how a Cyberknife machine can move.

4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

I don't actually "make" trouble..just kind of attract it, fine tune it, and apply it in new and exciting ways

Steve,

Thanks for the link to the Cyberknife show!   I had no idea that Cyberknife could dance so well.  I'm sure everyone involved had a good time and a great laugh!  I'm with Jan -- if it does windows I want one too but I think Ill wait for the price to come down and get it on sale!!
 ;D

I hope I never need to use the CK robot, but my wife I'm sure would like to know if I need it would it also teach me how to dance.  I have two left feet and she would really like it if I could dance a little bit.
