STOCKHOLM, Jan. 15, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The third proton
therapy center launched by Provision Healthcare is currently under
construction in Southwest Orange County,
Florida. Provision CARES Proton Therapy Orlando is expected
to treat approximately 700 patients per year and will be equipped
with next-generation oncology information system RayCare® and
treatment planning system RayStation® from RaySearch.
The Provision CARES Cancer Network was established with the
opening of its first center in 2014. Provision CARES Proton Therapy
Knoxville became the first of its kind to use RayStation® for
clinical proton treatment planning. Further successful clinical use
took place in the ensuing years at Provision's center, Provision
CARES Proton Therapy Nashville, which became the first oncology
center to connect RayCare directly to the treatment delivery
system, using it to record and verify sessions.
Provision CARES Proton Therapy Orlando will be a three-treatment
room center and will utilize the latest proton systems technology,
the ProNova SC360, manufactured by ProNova Solutions, an affiliate
of Provision.
RayCare is designed to support the workflow in a modern oncology
center, connecting the medical, surgical, and radiation
disciplines, boosting efficiency, and ensuring optimal use of
resources. RayCare is rapidly developing in collaboration with some
of the leading cancer centers worldwide.
RaySearch and Provision are collaborating to improve proton
treatment workflows, and are successfully creating standalone
centers utilizing RayStation, RayCare and the ProNova delivery
system. There are plans for more centers in other states.
Ben Frank, President, Provision
CARES Proton Therapy Nashville, says: "One of the key priorities in
the current healthcare environment is to provide care that is both
efficient as well as innovative. Cancer patients should be able to
benefit from the latest technologies, and RaySearch and Provision
are focused on developing systems that optimize resources as well
as quality."
Johan Löf, founder and CEO, RaySearch, says: "Provision is a
great example of the critical role that clinical partners play in
the development of RaySearch software. In the case of RayCare,
Provision provides valuable input into what an oncology information
system should provide for various types of treatments, for
different roles within healthcare teams and, ultimately, for
patients."
