“Mevion pioneered the world’s first compact single-room proton therapy system,” said Lawrence Yuan Tian, Ph.D., Chairman of Mevion Medical Systems. “Since its founding, Mevion has been leading the revolution of compact proton therapy as this advanced cancer treating technology gains widespread global adoption. We are proud to partner with Jinshazhou Hospital and ICON Group to bring the most precise radiation therapy to patients in the Greater Bay Area and beyond.”

The sale of a MEVION S250i system to Jinshazhou represents another concrete step in Mevion’s ambitious and ongoing expansion in China and the APAC region. "Combining the technical advantages of our product with a strong China team, Mevion is well-positioned to tap the fast-growing proton market in China,” said Tina Yu, Ph.D., CEO of Mevion Medical Systems. “Elite medical institutions in China have signed framework agreements with us in the past year, and we are on track to deliver our accelerator to Allcure Kangtai in 2020. Our collaboration with Jinshazhou Hospital marks another significant milestone in Mevion’s global growth."
