INSTALLATION OF 3 IBA COMPACT PROTON THERAPY CENTERS IN THE UK

IBA has signed three binding term sheets with Proton Partners International (PPI) to install 3 of its Proteus®ONE compact proton therapy solutions in private clinics in the UK. Each agreement covers the equipment delivery (including next generation Pencil Beam Scanning and Cone Beam CT capabilities) and a 10-year maintenance contract. These 3 centers will be the 8th, 9th and 10th installations of IBA’s compact single-room proton therapy solution and are expected to treat their first patients in 2017. The center in Newport will treat patients from Wales, the south-west of England and the Midlands, and the center in Newcastle will treat patients from the North of England. The location of the third center will be announced at a later date. These 3 projects follow the framework agreement signed between IBA and Philips to advance the diagnosis and treatment of cancer.
