Proton vs SBRT for NSCLC


Danioh

Recommended Posts

Thoughts?  I have a 1cm lesion (metastasis?) and seem to be a candidate (from my own research) for proton therapy.  My insurance will cover both treatments.  Has anyone done proton therapy?  If so, would you be willing to share your experience?

Hi, Danioh. I have not had proton therapy but did have SBRT last fall. I had a recurrence in the remaining portion of my left lung but was not a surgical candidate so Super Doc and  Super Radiation Doc suggested SBRT. It seems to be working. This doesn't answer your question about proton therapy but I wanted to share my SBRT experience.

Any proton therapy folks out there?
