Proton therapy is a type of particle therapy that uses a beam of protons to irradiate diseased tissue, most often to treat cancer. The chief advantage of proton therapy over other types of external beam radiotherapy (e.g., radiation therapy, or photon therapy) is that the dose of protons is deposited over a narrow range of depth, which results in minimal entry, exit, or scattered radiation dose to healthy nearby tissues. High dose rates are key in cancer treatment advancements. PSI demonstrated that for cyclotron-based proton therapy facility using momentum cooling, it is possible to achieve remarkable dose rates of 952 Gy/s and 2105 Gy/s at the Bragg peak (in water) for 70 MeV and 230 MeV beams, respectively. When combined with field-specific ridge filters, Bragg peak-based FLASH proton therapy becomes feasible.
