ProteusONE can increase hospital attractivity
Proton therapy is one of the most precise and powerful forms of radiotherapy today. It minimizes damage to healthy tissues, potentially resulting in fewer side effects than conventional radiation therapy.1 With fewer post-treatment side effects, cancer patients can more likely live a healthy life again after proton therapy treatment.2
As the most versatile proton therapy system on the market today, ProteusONE provides administration and staff with more flexibility to qualify patients for proton therapy and have a positive impact on their lives. In the United States, Corewell Health (formerly Beaumont) Hospital Royal Oak, one of the proton therapy pioneers and ProteusONE early adopters, earned “high performing” recognition in the cancer field in the U.S. News & World Report 2023-2024 Best Hospitals ranking.3 The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, which also offers proton therapy treatment, is ranked as the number one cancer hospital in the United States.
