Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a radiation therapy system, in particular to a neutron capture therapy system. Background technique
[0002] With the development of atomic science, radiation therapy such as cobalt 60, linear accelerator, and electron beam has become one of the main means of cancer treatment. However, traditional photon or electron therapy is limited by the physical conditions of the radiation itself. While killing tumor cells, it will also cause damage to a large number of normal tissues along the beam path; in addition, due to the different sensitivity of tumor cells to radiation, traditional radiation therapy Treatment for more radioresistant malignant tumors (eg glioblastoma multiforme, melanoma) is often less effective.
[0003] In order to reduce radiation damage to normal tissues around the tumor, the concept of target therapy in chemotherapy (chemotherapy) has been applied to radiation therapy; and for tumor cells with high radiation ...
