> Proton therapy is a type of radiation treatment that uses protons instead of X-rays to treat cancerous tumors. Protons are positively charged subatomic particles found in the nuclei of atoms. They can be extracted from special accelerators and focused on specific parts of the body with great accuracy - usually, the tumor itself. This allows physicians to use higher doses of radiation, while limiting damage to surrounding tissue.

> Proton therapy is more accurate than x-ray radiation therapy because it can be targeted directly at the tumor site, rather than irradiating a larger area. Because of this precision, proton therapy reduces side effects and may improve quality of life for patients undergoing treatment.

> Proton therapy is not a replacement for traditional x-ray radiation therapy. Instead, it is an effective tool that complements other therapies and helps physicians customize treatment plans to fit the needs of each patient. — The American Society For Radiation Oncology (ASTRO)

> Proton Beam Therapy has been shown to have great potential in treating several cancers such as head and neck, prostate, pediatric brain tumors and childhood sarcomas
