Abstract

It is an object of the present invention to provide an accelerated particle irradiation apparatus capable of efficiently providing a particle accelerator and an irradiation device at predetermined sites. A cyclotron (2) is provided at the lowermost layer of the house (6A) consisting of a multi-layer structure, and a rotating gantry (3) is provided over a layer higher than the cyclotron (2). As a result, the cyclotron (2) and the rotating gantry (3) are provided in different layers of the house (6A), so that the area occupied by the space can be minimized. As a result, it is easy to set the cyclotron (2) and the rotating gantry (3).

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of the application with the application number 201010578447.9, the application date is December 3, 2010, and the invention name is "accelerated particle irradiation equipment". technical field [0002] The present invention relates to accelerated particle irradiation equipment for radiation therapy including an irradiation device such as a rotating gantry. Background technique [0003] There is known a device for treating cancer by irradiating accelerated particles such as proton beams to a patient. Such equipment includes: a cyclotron that generates accelerated particles; a rotatable irradiation device (rotary gantry) that irradiates a patient with accelerated particles from any direction; and a guide line that guides accelerated particles generated by the cyclotron to the irradiation device. The rotating gantry is provided with: a treatment table on which the patient lies; an irradiation unit for irradiating accelerated p...
