Abstract
Purpose: The article is devoted to the history of the development of proton radiotherapy and the achievements of the Institute of Experimental and Clinical Oncology (now the Federal State Budgetary Institution ͞N.N. Blokhin National Medical Research Center of Oncology͟ of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation) in proton radiation therapy.
Matreial and Methods: Proton radiotherapy has been used in the treatment of patients since 1967 with tumors of the breast, prostate, thyroid gland, tongue, esophagus, larynx, cervix, vulva, malignant melanoma, osteogenic sarcoma, metastases to the liver, lungs, bones, soft tissues, skin, etc. Treatment was carried out at the Centes for Proton Beam Therapy of Dubna and Moscow.
Results: N.N. Blokhin National Medical Research Center of Oncology belongs to 2/3 of the total clinical experience proton radiоtherapy in Russia. This is 2351 patients. The greatest experience is useful in treating patients with breast cancer. This is 1243 patients.
