The treatment of ocular melanoma with active scanned proton beam have started.
At Fondazione CNAO (Pavia), the treatment of ocular melanoma with active scanned proton beam have started. This important achievement has been reached also due to the work performed at CARTCASLab mainly by Aurora Fassi and Riccardo Via in developing an innovative system for eye movement tracking, in the frame of the collaboration between Politecnico di Milano and Fondazione CNAO.
