Tata Memorial Proton Therapy Treats 541 Patients in Two Years

Imagine a special machine that fights cancer using tiny particles called protons.

This machine is at Tata Memorial Centre in Mumbai.

In two years, it has helped over 500 patients, including many children.

It uses a smart way to target cancer cells while protecting healthy parts of the body.

Many people get help with the cost, or get it free, thanks to charity.

Most patients are from India but some came from other countries.

There's a team of experts and even a support group to help patients and their families.

They are also studying to make the treatment even better.
