As a result, proton-beam therapy is indicated in pediatric patients and for certain tumor types:
The new facility will feature integrated, single-room
treatment outfitted with all the necessary equipment. The
proton-beam therapy system, called Proteus One®, includes
tumor-scanning technology that enables physicians to
deliver the most appropriate radiation dose and target each specific area requiring treatment. The new machine is equipped with highly sophisticated imaging equipment and can rotate 220° around the patient, allowing the beam to be aimed at a tumor from any angle.
are just some of the many benefits that proton therapy offers.
