Why is proton therapy considered a better treatment than others?

Proton therapy uses a high-energy proton beam for cancer treatment. Its game-changing efficacy in treating cancer has made it the pinnacle of radiation therapy in the world. Proton therapy has ushered in a new paradigm of clinical excellence and outcomes in cancer treatment. It provides targeted treatment and precision, unlike any other radiation treatment.
OPERATING AT THE LEADING EDGE OF THE WEDGE
  • Targeted delivery - Proton therapy allows the radiation oncologist to modulate energy and fix the peak dose of radiation exactly where it is required.
  • Better outcomes - Pencil Beam Scanning paints the entire tumor with high powered radiation resulting in an almost 80% decrease in the chances of secondary cancers.
  • Minimum side effects - Proton’s inherent accuracy delivers precise radiation with no exit doses. This minimizes side effects and dramatically augments the quality of life post-treatment.
