The Northwestern Medicine Proton Center is the first and only proton radiation center in Illinois using state-of-the-art technology to treat adults and children with tumors and cancer from all over the world. Using an advanced device called a cyclotron, experts can manipulate protons to release their energy at precise depths, which means that high doses of radiation are delivered sparing vital tis

sues and organs near the cancer site. This can minimize side effects and maximize long-term function and quality of life. The center’s multidisciplinary team of clinical experts develops individualized treatment plans, assuring that patients receive the very best care and most effective treatment possible.

With Superhero day coming up on April 28th, one of our pediatric patients is already showing her superhero powers at the proton center this week. Little Melanie worked with our child life specialist to create “Sunshine on a Stick” made from her handprint.
