Proton therapy system receives FDA approval
« on: June 13, 2012, 09:21:43 pm »
 I Live in St. Louis so I have been watching this closely.  There has not been a lot of discussion on proton therapy.  This new system delivers the protons in a different way and is the first in the country.  I will definitely consider it if the time comes that I need to seek treatment.
