Second gantry room open for treatments

After an initial two hours of patient treatments each day, the number of treatment slots will be expanded during the month of September. By the end of that month, both gantries will adhere to an eight-hour treatment day. 

Doubling the overall capacity will shorten the waiting list for patient treatments. We will also be able to accept additional head and neck cancer patients for proton therapy. Some of these patients are currently being treated with photon therapy, even if their planning comparison study shows a significant reduction in treatment-related complications when applying proton therapy.
