Proton therapy could be a safer way to treat cancer

Cancer is a disease that affects millions of people around the world, and treating it often involves tough decisions. One of the most common treatments is radiation therapy, which uses high-energy beams to kill cancer cells. While radiation can be effective, it often damages healthy tissues around the tumor, causing side effects like fatigue, skin […]
