  Since 2009, the ECR ion source for material researcher was developed at Korea Basic Science Institute (KBSI). From our efforts during 7 years, The service of 28 GHz ECR ion source of KBSI was succeeded in this year. Our new project is started based on developed skills for 28GHz ECR ion source. In this year, we are started proton ECR ion source with high current for medical application that is Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT), Proton Therapy. The first step is development of proton ECR ion source with beam current of 23mA. In this paper, we will suggest design results and manufacturing status of proton ECR ion source for BNCT. Also, we will introduce the future plan about development of compact proton therapy and will report plans for feasibility study.
