About Proton Therapy for Cancer Treatment

Proton radiation therapy treats prostate cancer using precise, high-energy beams to destroy cancer cells.

Because our proton beams focus most of their energy at the tumor site, less damage is done to healthy surrounding tissues. For most patients, less damage means fewer side effects and a more active lifestyle during and after treatment.
