Precision Radiotherapy

Radiosurgery & Brachytherapy

For selected tumors, stereotactic radiotherapy and internal radiation therapy may be used to deliver a highly focused dose to the treatment area.

Systemic Cancer Treatment

Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may include chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy based on tumor characteristics and previous treatment.

ProBeam proton therapy system for cancer treatment in China

Proton Therapy for Cancer in China

Proton therapy is an advanced form of precision radiation treatment. Unlike conventional X-rays, protons release most of their radiation dose at a controlled depth, known as the Bragg peak.
This allows doctors to concentrate the dose within the tumor while reducing unnecessary radiation beyond the target. The potential benefit depends on the tumor type, location and individual treatment plan.
