Q&A: 1 vs. 2cancer centers
2008
Overview
[Jim Spear]: There are 60,000 new cancer patients every year in the stateof Illinois. We believe about 10,000 to 11,000 could benefit fromproton therapy. Spear: I think that number is low. Just using the math in Illinois 10,000 to 11,000 (patients eligible for proton therapy) is way inexcess of the capacity of the two facilities. Spear: Under the rules and regulations of the health and planningboard, you have to wait a year before you can reapply for that project. Were going to wait. Were not going away. There are cancer patientsthat need proton beam therapy. And we are committed to delivering thattreatment, that therapy, for our patients.
