I suspect one needs to talk to the Radiation Oncologist who works at a place that is able to provide both types of radiation and then they will advise which is better in your case. Google it and you will find a list of places that do proton. I recall that there were only 50-60 in the US. SBRT is provided by many centers

I was going to ask you about the proton radiation. My oncologist just mentioned the stereotactic so guess I might not be able to have it here or even get it. I'm not looking forward to this as I have COPD also,, plus other issues and not able to have any surgery. I had all my other treatment for lung cancer at Mayo but been going here at Sioux Falls. To me its a never win situation........ put onefoot forward, don't look back, and be thankful for each day you have.... I will check about proton radiation here, as I have no idea........ Thanks......
