About
HIL Applied Medical is developing ultra-compact, high-performance accelerators for proton therapy. The company applies a patented, laser-based, nanotech-enabled approach to particle acceleration to facilitate cost-effective, single-room proton therapy systems. HIL is also developing ultra-compact beam delivery solutions, specifically beamlines and rotating gantries, that take advantage of the unique properties of laser-accelerated proton beams. With this technology, the company can offer further reductions in the size, cost, and complexity of a complete system. HILs technology aims to enable cost-effective, expandable, add-on single-room solutions while providing clinical capabilities such as 360 rotation, integrated imaging, pencil-beam scanning, IMPT, gating, and adaptive therapy. The companys technology was conceived and incubated at the high-energy physics lab of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem.
