At BSL we manufacture magnets used in all areas of cancer treatment for Photon and Proton therapy.
Quads, dipoles, and sextupoles as well as the XY scanner magnets that steer the beam into the patient. Companies such as Varian Medical, Optivus, Hitachi and Mitsubishi are just some we manufacture for.
Proton therapy has been around for many years now but is developing heavily around the world. The treatment is so effective and easy on the body that after treatment, patients are able to continue with their normal day's activities.
The medical profession hope to build resorts where these facilities are available so whilst patients are attending treatment for the month they can also swim, play golf, bowls etc.
