Abstract
This study was conducted to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of proton therapy as an advanced convergent cancer therapy. Clinical data of proton therapy were analyzed. As proton enters patient's body, it releases low dose of energy and shows an increasing energy deposition as it reaches certain point unlike x-ray. It may therefore reduce the radiation dose to the normal tissues in front and beyond the lesion and minimize the radiation damage. Proton therapy is expected to improve clinical outcomes and reduce treatment related toxicities. It is used in various cancers. Further studies are necessary.
