protoniterapiasta
Protoniterapiasta, also known as proton therapy, is a type of radiation therapy used to treat cancer. Unlike traditional photon radiation therapy, which uses X-rays, proton therapy uses a beam of protons. Protons are positively charged subatomic particles that can be precisely controlled to deliver a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor while sparing surrounding healthy tissues. This targeted approach can lead to fewer side effects compared to other forms of radiation treatment.
The Bragg peak phenomenon is a key principle behind proton therapy. As protons travel through tissue, they
Proton therapy is typically delivered in a specialized facility called a proton treatment center. Patients lie
