Find Out More About Proton Therapy for Cancer
Join us for an exclusive presentation by radiation oncologist Carl Rossi, MD and a tour of Scripps Proton Therapy Center.
Proton therapy is one of the most advanced and precise ways to treat tumors. Using a radiation beam about as thin as a pencil, proton therapy precisely targets the tumor and stops there, which means the tumor can be “erased” with minimal side effects while sparing surrounding healthy tissue.
The event will feature:
- Presentation by Dr. Carl Rossi, medical director of Scripps Proton Therapy Center
- Proton therapy patients sharing their experiences
- Q&A with patient representatives
- Tour of the facility, treatment rooms and technology
- Complimentary appetizers and refreshments
