The Proton Institue Of New York

Welcome to The Proton Institure of New York

At the Proton Institute of New York, we're committed to changing the
way cancer is treated, and the way cancer treatment is experienced.
That's why we're developing the newest, least invasive and most promising tool in use today: Proton therapy.

Benefits of proton therapy over conventional therapy:
Fewer short and long term side effects

less damage to healthy tissue in children and adults

Reduced incidence of secondary tumors resulting from radiation
treatment Imagine a cancer treatment that precisely targets tumors.
Imagine higher cure rates for localized cancers.

That's Proton Therapy.
