Introducing the South Florida Proton Center

"It's the radiotherapy of the future"
- James G. Schwade M.D. FACR, FACRO, FASTRO

 

State of the Art

The South Florida Proton Center is an area wide, state of the art, proton beam radiation treatment facility scheduled to open in early 2012. It will be a unique partnership between private and academic physicians representing an innovative, efficient model for the delivery of this advanced technology for cancer treatment.

Community Based

Unlike traditional single institution based technology, the SFPC will work with a large number of institutions and physicians to make the technology available to the broadest number of patients.

First-Class Facilities

The SFPC is working with a major national architectural firm for the design of the facility. The facility will have a 250 Mev super conducting cyclotron with two general treatment vaults and a room for eye treatments and physics research.  The main treatment vaults will contain a gantry in one room and a single straight line horizontal beam in the other.Learn more about us
