Advanced Oncotherapy PLC - London-based provider of proton therapy for cancer treatment - Says it has made "significant" progress with the commissioning of the Light system. This includes Light system beam being optimised to a sub-millimetre size, with a beam current of about 50 microamperes; and 20 of the 21 accelerating modules have been radio-frequency conditioned.
Chief Executive Officer Nicolas Serandour says: "Since our last update, we have made significant headway towards the delivery of our first-ever LIGHT system operating at 230 MeV. We are pleased to see positive data on the performance of the machine's beam, in line with our computer simulations, outlining the superior profile of the LIGHT proton beam. As we progress to finalise the integration of the remaining high energy accelerating modules of the LIGHT system, we remain on track to have a fully operational LIGHT system at 230 MeV during summer 2022."
