Gynecologic Oncology

Proton therapy is effective in treating types of gynecologic cancers, including cervical, ovarian and uterine cancer.
Treatment
Proton Therapy for Cervical Cancer
Cervical cancer occurs when cancer cells form in the cervix or the lower part of a woman’s uterus. Cervical cancer is primarily caused by HPV (human papillomavirus) infections.
Treatment
Proton Therapy for Ovarian Cancer
Ovarian cancer develops in the ovary and falls into one of four categories: epithelial, stromal, germ cell, and small cell.
Treatment
Proton Therapy for Uterine Cancer
Uterine cancer, also known as endometrial cancer, is a disease that forms in the endometrium, which is the tissue lining the uterus.
