Taking the fight to cancer with PBT

Meet the team and the machine taking the fight to cancer.

Hitachi has installed its first Proton Beam Therapy Treatment System in Europe. The cutting-edge cancer treatment system is in Madrid at the ClĂ­nica Universidad de Navarra. The system treats hard to reach tumours, where precision is vital. Proton Beam Therapy is especially useful in also treating cancers in children, where the surrounding tissue remains untouched. In this film we meet the team behind the machine, to discover how Hitachi and hospital staff have kept the machines running during COVID-19.
