Proton Therapy is a form of radiation therapy used in Nuclear Medicine and Radiopharmacology. It is a type of particle therapy that uses protons, rather than X-rays, to treat cancer. Protons are positively charged particles that can be precisely targeted to tumors, minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. This makes Proton Therapy an attractive option for treating tumors in sensitive areas, such as the brain, spine, and eyes. It is also used to treat tumors that are difficult to reach with traditional radiation therapy. Proton Therapy is a rapidly growing field, with many companies offering services and equipment. Examples include Varian Medical Systems, IBA, Hitachi, ProTom International, and Mevion Medical Systems. Show Less Read more
