IBA Proteus PLUS

Modality: Proton Therapy

Multi-room proton therapy system — one central cyclotron (IBA C235) feeds beam via switching magnet to 2–5 treatment rooms (mixed gantry + fixed-beam). The reference multi-room proton center globally; deployed in academic centers and flagship cancer programs.

Variant-specific considerations

  • Room-temperature C235 cyclotron
  • 2–5 treatment rooms per installation
  • Pencil Beam Scanning + optional passive scattering on older rooms
  • Large facility footprint + civil works (rotating gantries + shielding)
