With the UK's first high-energy Proton Beam Therapy Centre set to open next year at Manchester's The Christie, young patients with head and neck tumours, cancers close to the skull or spine, or a variety of soft tissue tumours, and adults with cancers difficult to treat using 'conventional' photon-based radiotherapy will, for the first time, be able to receive NHS proton beam therapy (PBT) without having to travel overseas. HEJ editor, Jonathan Baillie, visited the site of The Christie's new £135 million PBT Centre to find out more about the design and construction of a facility which interserve construction director for the North-West, Phil Shaw, describes as one of the most complex and specialist he has worked on.
英国首个高能质子束治疗中心将于明年在曼彻斯特的克莉丝蒂医院开业。届时，患有头颈肿瘤、颅骨或脊柱附近癌症或各种软组织肿瘤的年轻患者，以及患有难以用“传统”光子放疗治疗的癌症的成年人，将首次能够在英国国民医疗服务体系（NHS）接受质子束治疗（PBT），而无需前往海外。《健康工程杂志》编辑乔纳森·贝利参观了克莉丝蒂医院耗资1.35亿英镑新建的PBT中心，以了解更多关于该设施设计和建设的情况。西北地区建筑总监菲尔·肖将其描述为他所参与的最复杂、最专业的项目之一。
