A Technological Guide to Proton Therapy Systems in Healthcare Industry

Proton therapy is a radiation treatment that uses protons to treat cancerous cells in the body. This can be achieved by delivering a beam of protons to the precise location of cancerous cells in the body. Radiation therapy leads to the risk of damaging healthy tissues or organs in the body but the major advantage of proton therapy is that a physician can control the released proton beams targeted at cancerous cell and prevent the damage of healthy tissues in the vicinity.
