Proton therapy

Reportage at the Rinecker Proton Therapy Center in Munich, Germany. The center has the latest equipment for proton therapy treatment. Proton therapy involves irradiating cancer cells by concentrating a proton beam on the heart of the tumor, while preserving the healthy surrounding tissue. Settings on software which allow the tumor to be targeted precisely. To treat tumors on organs that move during breathing, the patient is placed under artificial apnea.
