How many courses of proton therapy for tumors

Tumors are actually a very common disease in our lives. Many of our friends are very afraid of tumors and always think that tumors are very serious diseases. In fact, this is not the case. Tumors can be divided into benign and malignant types, and today’s medical methods are very advanced. Many tumor diseases can be treated with proton therapy.

The process of emitting protons to the tumor only takes 1 minute. In addition, due to the pencil-shaped scanning characteristics of proton technology, the peak part is only aimed at the tumor lesion, and the dose utilization rate is maximized.

For example, if a patient receiving conventional radiotherapy needs a three-month treatment course, proton therapy, which has a dose utilization rate three times that of traditional radiotherapy, only requires one month. This shortens the patient's treatment course while maximizing the therapeutic effect.

In summary, proton therapy has successfully attracted the attention of medical experts around the world due to its many advantages such as precise targeting. Experts from the Borlag Proton Therapy Center, the only proton therapy center in China, said, "The precision of proton therapy has made it possible to cure tumors in complex locations. It can be said that proton therapy has brought new treatment ideas to children's tumors, head and neck tumors, nervous system tumors, liver cancer and prostate cancer. Among the more than 2,000 patients treated in our center, these five types of tumors accounted for the majority, and in the follow-up visits with them, all of them thanked proton therapy.

Today, proton therapy for childhood cancer has almost become an international consensus, and the American medical community is also continuously building a large number of proton therapy centers. It is no exaggeration to say that proton therapy is widely considered to be the most advanced tumor treatment method currently. When it comes to this world-leading technology, my country started not too late, and even started earlier than most European and American countries. The Bollag Proton Therapy Center was put into use in 2004. The center's experts have rich treatment experience and have invited American proton therapy experts to provide long-term medical services, with the sole purpose of providing domestic patients with the world's top treatment technology.
