Proton therapy makes it possible to treat cancer more effectively and with fewer side effects than with conventional radiation therapy.  The clinic is located in Uppsala, Sweden and the first patient is expected to be treated in 2015. The clinic is designed at present for treatment of 1000 patients per year, but with an option of future expansion.
