Proton Therapy
Our mission: To help the 20% of the radiation therapy patients that could benefit from proton therapy. Today more and more oncology patients are accessing this cutting edge cancer treatment and the range of indications is expanding. Based on the experts’ reports and the experience of large academic centers.
- Minimizes radiation exposure of healthy tissues.
- Potential to reduce the risk of secondary cancers.
- Potential to improve the quality of life for patients.
- Possibility of retreatment.
Proton therapy is considered the most advanced form of radiation therapy that uses high-energy proton beam to irradiate tumors.
For its benefits, proton therapy is used today to treat many cancers and is particularly appropriate in situations where treatment options are limited and conventional radiotherapy using photon beam presents unacceptable risks to patients. These situations include eye and brain cancers, head and neck cancers, prostate, liver, lung, breast, and pediatric cancers, as well as other tumors in close proximity to one or more critical structures.
