Noida, UP -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/31/2014 -- Proton Therapy has carved out a niche for itself in the cancer treatment market. Starting with just one proton therapy center in 1990, the US now has close to 15 proton therapy centers. With a whole lot of therapy centers coming up in various states like California, Florida, Washington and Texas, this number is expected to grow to 29 by 2018.
