Kadean Completes Upgrade to Siteman Cancer Center Proton Therapy System
Kadean Construction Company is excited to announce the official completion of the upgrade to the world’s first single-room proton therapy system! The project is located in the S. Lee Kling Proton Therapy Center at Siteman Cancer Center on the Washington University Medical Campus. Our team previously constructed the original proton vault, as well as the adjacent 48,000-cubic-foot, concrete vault for BJC HealthCare. The upgrade to the single-room proton therapy system involved the installation of a state-of-the-art beam delivery system, which allows for more targeted and precise treatment of cancer cells.
“Kadean Construction is proud to have been a part of this important project, which will undoubtedly have a positive impact on the lives of many cancer patients. We look forward to continuing to work with Siteman Cancer Center and BJC Healthcare on future projects that help to advance medical technology and improve patient care.”
