Proton Beam Radiation Therapy

Subject: Proton Beam Radiation therapy
Date: 05/05/2008

In the discussion on radiation therapy techniques, photon radiation is the only type presented, with aiming and modulation variances.  How about adding an explanation on Proton Beam therapy?  Loma Linda University, MGH in Boston, MPRI in Bloomington, IN, MD Anderson, and the University of Florida in Jacksonville are the ones I know about as a lay person looking for treatment alternatives for my pancreactic tumor.

 

Would you experts please add this evolving alternative radiation therapy technique to the descriptions?

 

Thank you,

 

Terry Y
