Varian will leverage its global leadership in proton therapy and further expand its cooperation with Shandong Cancer Hospital & Institute by creating a proton clinical training school, developing proton therapy clinical application guidelines in China, and conducting research on Big Data and AI, as well as Flash therapy, which represents the potential for a major breakthrough in the treatment of cancer.
The center will be equipped with Varian's ProBeam system, which is the first to offer fully-integrated intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT). The ProBeam system also consists of a superconducting cyclotron, 360-degree gantry and high-speed pencil-beam scanning technology. The system's integrated cone beam CT provides accurate patient positioning based on high quality anatomical images with excellent soft tissue resolution. In combination with ARIA oncology information system and Eclipse treatment planning system, it enables an efficient adaptive workflow. The system can also provide clinicians a viable path to potential next-generation treatments such as Flash therapy.
