Real Case: Brain Metastasis from Lung Cancer Cleared After One Year of Precision Treatment
This patient had been living with left lung adenocarcinoma for 22 years, experiencing multiple recurrences over time.
Although standard chemotherapy and immunotherapy helped maintain stability for a while, no actionable gene mutations were found for targeted therapy. A year later, the disease progressed, and brain metastases appeared, putting his condition in crisis.
Surgery was initially suggested, but because of the tumor’s sensitive location and extremely high risks, there was a possibility of paralysis if resection were attempted.
Ultimately, he chose stereotactic radiotherapy (such as the GyroKnife) to precisely eliminate the brain lesions.
One year after treatment, follow-up imaging showed: the brain metastases were no longer visible!
He then continued with immunotherapy, and his condition has remained stable, with a good quality of life.

This is the true journey of a patient with lung adenocarcinoma.
At the time of initial diagnosis, he was treated with targeted therapy, which helped to stabilize the lung tumor. However, during the course of treatment, the patient began to experience dizziness and blurred vision. Further evaluation revealed that the cancer had metastasized to the brain.
For many, the words “brain metastasis” may sound like a sign of despair. But the medical team quickly devised a treatment plan and initiated 5th-generation Helical Knife (Gamma Knife) stereotactic radiotherapy.
Designed to manage tumors in complex and sensitive areas, this technology is especially effective for brain metastases:
Non-invasive — no craniotomy required
No anesthesia, with maximal protection of normal brain tissue
Short treatment sessions, rapid recovery, highly precise targetingAfter several sessions of stereotactic radiotherapy, follow-up imaging showed the brain lesions had significantly regressed, some even completely resolved. His dizziness and visual disturbances gradually improved, and his overall condition stabilized with renewed energy .
This is a story of perseverance, advanced technology, and hope.

This is the real treatment journey of a patient with small cell lung cancer (SCLC).
Following early diagnosis, the patient underwent planned chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy, which initially brought the disease under control. However, several months later, new symptoms emerged — headaches and memory decline. Further investigations revealed that the cancer had metastasized to the brain.
Brain metastases are very common in SCLC and are often considered one of the greatest challenges in treatment. This time, however, the medical team responded quickly by initiating 5th-generation Helical Knife (Gamma Knife) stereotactic brain radiotherapy.
Key treatment advantages:
Non-invasive — no craniotomy required
Protects normal brain function regions
Highly precise, minimal side effects, rapid recoveryAfter multiple treatment sessions, the brain metastases were successfully cleared, with significant symptom improvement. Follow-up assessments confirmed disease stability, improved physical strength, and a gradual return to normal life.

This video shares the courageous journey of a patient with parotid gland cancer.
After initial treatment, his condition stabilized and life gradually returned to normal. However, years later, routine follow-up imaging revealed that the cancer had metastasized to the lungs, once again disrupting his peace.
Lung metastasis means the cancer has spread beyond its primary site, making the situation more complex and high-risk. Although the patient felt uncertain at first, he never gave up.
With guidance from the medical team, he underwent Helical Knife (5th-generation Gamma Knife) stereotactic radiotherapy for his pulmonary metastases:
Non-invasive — no surgery, no anesthesia
High-precision sessions targeting the lung lesions directly
No wounds, minimal discomfort, and daily life uninterruptedPost-treatment results were remarkable:
The lung metastases were successfully cleared with excellent therapeutic outcomes
Symptoms subsided, and his physical condition steadily improved
Most importantly, he regained confidence and returned to his family with renewed hope þThis case reminds us:
