Why Us?

Proton Therapy for Cancer Treatment: An effective alternative to traditional radiation that targets tumors and cancer cells more precisely. Proton radiation can be directed to reach only the areas of the body that are affected by cancer. This leads to more accurate therapy, with less risk that healthy tissue will be exposed to radiation - and this can reduce the risk of complications and side effects. Proton therapy is an advanced form of radiation therapy that uses protons rather than traditional X-rays. It targets tumors and cancer cells more precisely. This means less damage to surrounding tissue which results in a lower risk of side effects and a better quality of life during and after cancer treatment. When we opened our doors in August 2006, proton therapy was a new cancer treatment to the Southeast United States. Since then, our 165 dedicated staff members have brought hope of a cancer-free future to more than 9,600 patients from Florida, the U.S. and 33 countries. We are a regional and international resource offering proton therapy – one of the most advanced non-invasive cancer treatment tools available. Located in Jacksonville, Florida, our proton therapy center is staffed, situated and structured as a major clinical research facility. We serve as a center for multidisciplinary research with 133 published articles involving all interests that touch cancer and its treatment. The UF Health Proton Therapy Institute's interest extends into other clinical and scientific disciplines, including engineering, computer science, medical and legal ethics, social science, health economics, materials science and space technology.
