GP Conference - Rotorua
Tue June 10th 2025
From 5-8 June, our CEO Kate McLellan and Prashika Poonam, ARO Planning Supervisor, attended the GP CME Conference in Rotorua. However, it was CyberKnife that stole the spotlight!
There was strong interest in the use of CyberKnife for treating early-stage, localised prostate cancer, especially following an insightful presentation by Dr Vikash Patel. He shared outcomes from the PACE A trial, which compared SBRT (delivered via CyberKnife) with surgery, highlighting encouraging results for patients.
