English Noun hadrontherapies plural of hadrontherapy
Particle therapy is a form of external beam radiotherapy using beams of energetic neutrons, protons, or other heavier positive ions for cancer treatment. The most common type of particle therapy as of August 2021 is proton therapy. In contrast to X-rays (photon beams) used in older radioth...

Science & Applications: Hadron therapy for cancer treatment ; In 1946, when Robert Wilson published [1] the physical advantages of ion beams for therapy, there was no significant reaction from the medical community. However, the idea of proton- and carbon- tumour therapy is presently exploding within this community (fig.1). Up to now, 300 patients have been treated at GSI, Germany, with carbon ions and 2,000 at Chiba, Japan and 10, 000 at Loma Linda University Medical Center, US. Proton therapy ...
