How to organize a possible future for protontherapy, considering the present constraints on health politics
Description
The present status of protontherapy in 'extended' European Community is: six machines presently running at low to medium energy, three for medical purpose only, three for part-time medical applications. Three of these machines could be used for higher energy applications. Proposals for the construction of new facilities and their organization are presented, covering the evaluation of cost problems.
