Mevion
Mevion is the first and leading manufacturer of compact proton therapy units. Mevion’s compact proton therapy systems significantly reduce equipment procurement, design and construction costs. At the same time, this technology offers all the typical advantages of proton therapy over traditional radiation therapy in terms of efficacy with significantly reduced side-effects. This is possible due to the ability to focus the proton radiation as precisely as possible in the target location without affecting the surrounding tissues. In the USA 75% of all existing proton centers with a single treatment room use the Mevion system.
