Title: Proton Beam Radiation Therapy
Post by: bafisher on April 21, 2007, 08:27:49 am

Has anyone had this type of treatment?

I think it is similar to LINAC but I'm too uninformed to know..........javascript:void(0);
Huh

In particular at Midwest Proton Radiation Institute in Bloomington, Indiana at Indiana University's cyclotron (accelerator).

Thanks.

hi Ba,

Mass General Hospital in Boston also offers Proton, as well as Loma Linda in CA.  I know of BostonJake on this site that had it done at MGH. You may want to send him a private message (PM) to see how he is doing now.  Just a thought.
