AVO is a provider of internationally endorsed technology for advanced radiotherapy systems that are available to treat common and rare cancers.

They are a leader in affordable and accessible proton beam therapy along with other technologies such SD-IORT. AVO's focus is to develop advanced, cost effective and patient-friendly radiotherapy treatments which are clinically superior to those currently available.

Paul McManus, Director of Walbrook PR, said: "We are delighted to have been appointed by Advanced Oncotherapy as a client at such an exciting period of change within the company. They represent the next generation of radiation treatment using Linac Image Guided Hadron Technology (LIGHT) therapy and with this, significantly reduce the side effects of invasive cancer treatments. Walbrook has built up a very strong position in the Life Sciences space, which combines well with our passion for working growing businesses, securing our position as the No. 1 Financial PR agency for AIM listed healthcare stocks."
