Dr Daniel Indelicato from the University of Florida, USA Health Proton Therapy Institute visits Australia.

Dr. D. Indelicato has treated several Australian children with proton therapy who have travelled to Florida for inoperable brain tumour treatment over the years. In June 2024, Dr. Indelicato was invited to speak at the biennial Paediatric Radiation Oncology Society Meeting in Sydney. Danny shared his expertise around what Austalia should know about setting up proton therapy in Australia.

During his visit Dr Indelicato also caught up with a previous patient, Audrey and her mother Sue who travelled from Australia to the US at aged 5 to have a benign, but inoperable brain tumor treated by proton therapy as no service or treatment was available in Australia.
