Find out if Proton Therapy is Right For You ADVANCED CANCER TREATMENT OPTION Proton therapy decreases the chances of secondary cancers by up to 39%. What is Proton Therapy? Proton therapy is an advanced form of radiation that precisely targets tumors with a maximum radiation dose that stops at the tumor site, sparing healthy tissue and organs as a result. This highly advanced technology is an effective treatment option ideal for localized, solid tumors near critical organs in the body for both adults and children with cancer. Because of the precise nature of proton therapy, it ultimately results in far fewer side effects, including secondary cancers caused by radiation. This powerful tool in the cancer fighting toolbox can help you get back to your life quicker after treatment by preserving your quality of life. Proton therapy benefits How Does it Work? The is one of only a few proton therapy facilities in the country to feature the advanced pencil-beam scanning” technology in every treatment room. With this cutting-edge delivery technique and intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT), we’re able to deliver the right dose exactly where it is needed. IMPT paints” radiation on layer by layer, hugging the tumor’s shape and minimizing the radiation dose neighboring healthy tissues receive. Proton therapy is a painless, non-invasive, and well tolerated treatment that can be used in conjunction with other treatments, such as hyperthermia, chemotherapy, or surgery. It results in fewer side effects than traditional photon radiation and it decreases the chance of secondary cancers by 26-39%.
