Proton Therapy for Brain Tumors Proton radiation therapy is an advanced treatment that sends radiation to the exact size, shape and depth of your brain tumor.

Brain tumor patients can have adverse effects both from the tumor and its treatment. #ProtonTherapy is an important option because protons emit minimal radiation before suddenly releasing the highest dose at the calibrated spot - the tumor - minimizing side effects from treatment. bit.ly/3vZyKuz

We asked past #ProtonTherapy patients what they do to lift their spirits in winter. #BrainCancer patient James said: "There is something so nice about decorating with your loved ones and getting to sit back to admire the festive atmosphere when you're all finished."
