VJVirtual | Proton beam therapy for sarcomas

Daniel Saunders, MD, Christie Hospital, Manchester, UK, discusses proton beam therapy for sarcomas. Ewing sarcoma and rhabdomyosarcoma tend to be treated in the context of clinical trials, including a combination of chemotherapy plus local therapy and sometimes surgery. Spinal sarcoma treatment differs in regards to being able to offer preoperative radiotherapy, which reduces some of the potential side effects.
