Leo Cancer Care’s New Partnership with BNB Healthcare Will Bring Innovative Proton Therapy Solution to South Korea
Leo Cancer Care was founded with more than 100 years of Radiation Therapy experience by a team dedicated to challenging the norms. That’s why they are bringing a range of state-of-the-art upright Radiotherapy solutions to the healthcare market that will improve clinical effectiveness, accessibility and patient experience.
Leo Cancer Care has developed a unique upright positioning system and CT imaging system that can be combined with a fixed radiation beam, removing the need for large and expensive gantries.
Leo Cancer Care’s Upright Radiation Therapy Solution, Marie™, compatible with fixed Particle Therapy Beams
Leo Cancer Care recognised that South Korea was showing a large interest in Particle Therapy and investing in the infrastructure to offer these treatments, so they needed to find a well-established and trusted partner in South Korea to ensure the Leo technology was visible to the right people. That’s when the talks began with BNB and a partnership was formed.
“One of the key goals here at Leo Cancer Care is to improve global access to Radiation Therapy. Today marks a momentous step forward in that goal and I am very excited to be partnering with BNB to bring a new era in Radiation Therapy to South Korea. Every patient deserves the best and both organisations are committed to delivering just that”.
Stephen Towe, CEO of Leo Cancer Care
BNB Healthcare are suppliers and distributors of medical technology and software in South Korea and have been doing so since 2008. BNB is built on a philosophy that prioritizes the best solutions and puts customer trust first.
When BNB Healthcare was introduced to the Leo Cancer Care Proton Therapy Solution by Ulf Ahlund, Leo Cancer Care’s Asia Pacific Sales Director, they were intrigued by the patient-first approach and accessibility of the technology.
“We found that Marie Upright Proton Therapy Solution developed by LEO, is a breakthrough in Radiation Therapy, introducing a new concept of upright radiation therapy that could give hope to and encourage many patients suffering from cancer. I am convinced that LEO’s Marie™ is the best solution to solve the current problems around Proton Therapy, which is the high price, long installation periods and the need for a large, separate building. I am honored and delighted to be working with LEO as their Korean distribution partner.”
H.W Jang, CEO of BNB Healthcare
BNB Healthcare will be attending the upcoming KOSTRO event that will be taking place on Friday 7th May 2021. If you would like to learn more about the Leo technology make sure to stop by their booth.
