This is important for liver cancer patients because the liver is sensitive to radiation and may have additional underlying liver diseases such as cirrhosis and hepatitis.<\/p>\n<p>Proton therapy at HPSP treats primary liver tumors, including hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma, and liver metastases or cancerous tumors that originated elsewhere and have spread to the liver. This non-invasive and convenient treatment allows patients to return to their daily activities quickly.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The benefits of proton therapy for liver cancer treatment include:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Precise targeting of the tumor only<\/li>\n<li>Protection of the surrounding healthy tissues and critical organs such as the normal liver, stomach, kidneys, and small intestine<\/li>\n<li>Maintenance of quality of life during treatment<\/li>\n<li>Reduction of side effects of treatment, including liver failure, nausea, vomiting, and fatigue<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Whether proton therapy is right for you depends on your stage of liver cancer, performance status, pre-existing liver condition, and any underlying health issues.
