Siemens makes a system as well.

Amazing kit and we are lucky to experience our PC while this technology is available.

Best wishes for a successful outcome with minimal side effects.

It’s great to have these kind of discussions about Proton and the Mridian. Here is a link to another proton therapy machine that is used out there by Mevion.https://www.mevion.com/why-proton-therapy. At the end of the decision process, we all try and make the best decision we can with the information that we have.The more questions we can ask about pluses and minus’, the more comfortable we are with our decisions.
