IBA (Ion Beam Applications)

Ion Beam Applications (IBA) is a company that specializes in advanced medical technology, particularly in cancer treatment. They develop and produce cyclotrons—machines that generate precise beams of charged particles like protons and heavy ions. These particle beams are used in proton therapy, a targeted form of radiation treatment that destroys cancer cells while minimizing damage to healthy tissue. IBA's innovations have improved the accuracy and accessibility of these treatments worldwide, making them an essential player in the field of radiotherapy. Their technology helps save lives by providing more effective and less invasive cancer treatments.
