New England Gamma Knife Center
As one of the first Gamma Knife centers in the United States, Rhode
Island Hospital's New England Gamma Knife Center has brought new
hope to many patients throughout the country and the world. Gamma
Knife surgery maximizes patient comfort and can be used to treat
lesions that before either were inaccessible or were treated unsuccessfully
by conventional surgery and/or radiation therapy.
Our specially trained medical staff, under the direction of Georg
Noren, MD, PhD, has been using this lifesaving technology since
1992. Our longstanding relationship with Sweden's Karolinska Institute,
which pioneered the use of the Gamma Knife as a treatment, and our
partnership with Brown Medical School ensure that we have the most
up-to-date treatment methods for our patients.
The New England Gamma Knife Center is affiliated with the Comprehensive
Cancer Center at Rhode Island, The Miriam and Newport Hospitals.
