IHH Healthcare has joined the Upright Photon Alliance, an international research consortium led by Leo Cancer Care, to explore a new form of photon radiation treatment for cancer patients.

According to the group, upright proton therapy differs from the conventional method by offering a faster pre-treatment setup, with patients in a vertical position.

The formation of the consortium was announced during the annual meeting of the American Society for Radiation Oncology held in Washington DC.

Other members of the alliance include Mayo Clinic, Cone Health, OncoRay, and Centre Léon Bérard.
