Proton therapy uses energy from positively charged particles known as protons. This therapy is also effective in treating several kinds of cancer. .

The radiation used also referred to as Stereoactic Body Radiation Therapy and is usually recommended for men with risk prostate cancer. CyberKnife is more efficient than conventional radiation therapy.
