This unique characteristic of proton treatment can be employed to minimize the radiation dosage to adjacent tissues. In the case of breast cancer, this means that the heart and lungs are exposed to less radiation than with traditional radiation. Reducing the amount of radiation to the heart and lungs reduces the chance of adverse effects such as heart disease, decreased lung function, and secondary cancer. Specifically the left breast due to its proximity to the heart. Numerous clinical research study findings indicate that the proton therapy plan minimizes radiation exposure to the heart and lungs more effectively than the conventional methods. Furthermore, proton treatment may provide superior dose coverage to extensive regions than conventional radiation in the case of comprehensive regional lymph nodes. Our radiation oncologist will collaborate closely with these and other specialists to customize and coordinate your radiation therapy plan for breast cancer.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]Our center currently treats<\/p>\n
