Building an advanced cancer center requires pinpoint accuracy.

The Maryland Proton Treatment Center, operated by the Department of Radiation Oncology of the University of Maryland, offers one of the most advanced forms of cancer treatment available: proton therapy. The unique treatment is highly precise, targeting only the cancerous cells with radiation. Building a structure to house such an advanced therapy calls for deep resources and laser-tight accuracy — two reasons Advanced Particle Therapy chose to partner with 澳门足彩app.

The center will utilize cutting-edge materials and processes.

A three-story concrete structure houses the technologically advanced proton treatment equipment, five treatment areas and mechanical and electrical support spaces. 巨大的混凝土墙, ceilings and floors — ranging from 8’ to 15’ feet thick — provide structural support for the highly specialized proton treatment equipment as well as radiation shielding to the surrounding areas.

A calming environment that’s centered on patients.

The facility serves patient needs beyond treatment. Patients can access proton therapy services, 病人和家属休息室, 医疗办公室, research facilities and ground-level retail space. 从第一个病人开始, the center welcomes patients from near and far to the heart of the University of Maryland’s Biopark.
