Every year, proton therapy saves the lives of many children and adults with hard-to-treat tumours. But it could help even more people, says Damien Weber of PSI in an interview.
“Even more cancer patients could benefit from proton therapy”
A newly published book describes how life-saving proton therapy was developed at PSI. Damien Weber explains why the full potential of the method has not yet been exploited.
