3. Global Proton Therapy Market
Proton therapy or proton beam therapy is a highly precise method of radiotherapy. The treatment is
suitable for all patients regardless of age and as proton-therapy technology is continuously advancing,
features such as rotational gantries, higher energies and larger fields have expanded the treatment's
application to potentially any site in the body. IBA is the world leader and market pioneer of proton
therapy.
Globally the penetration of proton therapy centers is highest in North America, mainly in the US,
followed by Europe and Asia. The US retains the highest number of proton therapy centers and many
are in development phase or under construction. Proton therapy technology has also made inroads in
different countries as various governments are showing interest in this advanced technology. Proton
therapy is still developing in Europe, mainly because of low awareness of this therapy and also
because it is comparatively expensive. But as the therapy is getting acceptability because of its
effectiveness, and this technology holds immense potential as evident in the growing number of
proton centers across the world.
One of the chief arguments against the procedure of proton therapy is its massive cost as it is hugely
expensive to set-up and deliver a proton beam therapy center. Further, new technology such as pencil
beam scanning is coming up which has the ability to treat the most complex of tumors, while leaving
healthy tissue and critical structures untouched. This technology is used with proton therapy and
many new proton centers are adapting this technology.

4. Global Proton Therapy Market: Overview
Proton therapy which is also called proton beam therapy is a kind of particle therapy and is the
most advanced radiation therapy available in the world. It destroys cancer cells but does not attack
surrounding healthy tissue nearly as much as traditional radiation therapy does.
