PROTON & HEAVY-ION THERAPY

Understanding Proton and Heavy-Ion Therapy

Proton therapy and heavy-ion therapy are advanced forms of radiotherapy that use charged particles to target tumors with high precision. Compared with conventional X-ray radiation, particle therapy may reduce radiation exposure to surrounding healthy tissue in selected cases.

Heavy-ion therapy, including carbon-ion therapy, may offer additional biological effects for certain resistant tumors. However, these treatments are not suitable for every cancer or every patient.

Treatment suitability depends on:

Cancer type
Tumor location
Tumor stage
Pathology
Prior surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation
Current imaging
General health condition
Hospital treatment criteria

Each case must be reviewed by a qualified medical team.

质子与重离子治疗

了解质子与重离子治疗

质子治疗和重离子治疗是先进的放射治疗方式,利用带电粒子对肿瘤进行高精度照射。与传统 X 射线放疗相比,粒子治疗在部分病例中可能减少周围正常组织受到的辐射剂量。

重离子治疗,包括碳离子治疗,对于某些对传统放疗不敏感的肿瘤,可能具有特殊生物学优势。但这些治疗并不适合所有癌症或所有患者。

是否适合治疗,取决于:

癌症类型
肿瘤位置
肿瘤分期
病理结果
既往手术、化疗或放疗情况
当前影像资料
整体健康状况
医院治疗适应症标准

每一位患者都必须由具备资质的医疗团队进行病例审核。

Proton Therapy

Proton therapy uses proton beams to deliver radiation to a tumor with precision. In selected cases, it may help reduce radiation exposure to nearby healthy organs and tissues.

Proton therapy may be considered for tumors located near sensitive structures, pediatric tumors, skull base tumors, prostate cancer, head and neck tumors, and other complex cases subject to physician review.

质子治疗

质子治疗利用质子束对肿瘤进行精准照射。在部分病例中,质子治疗可能帮助减少周围正常器官和组织受到的辐射剂量。

质子治疗可考虑用于靠近重要器官的肿瘤、儿童肿瘤、颅底肿瘤、前列腺癌、头颈部肿瘤及其他需经医生审核的复杂病例。

Heavy-Ion Therapy

Heavy-ion therapy, often using carbon ions, is a form of particle therapy that may be considered for selected tumors requiring high-precision radiation and stronger biological effect.

It may be reviewed for certain recurrent, resistant, deep-seated, or complex tumors. Suitability must be determined by the treating medical team.

重离子治疗

重离子治疗通常使用碳离子,是一种粒子治疗方式,可能适用于部分需要高精度照射及较强生物学效应的肿瘤。

部分复发性、难治性、深部或复杂肿瘤可提交评估。是否适合治疗,必须由治疗医院的医疗团队决定。
