Abstract

The invention discloses a method and system for adjusting the size of an isocenter beam spot of a rotating rack. The method comprises the steps: generating a beam current through an accelerator (in amode of convolution or synchrotron), carrying out the matching transmission of the beam current of a transmission line, and obtaining the parameters of the beam current at the inlet of the rotating rack, such as the size of the beam spot and the emittance; carrying out the matching of different mirroring scales according to the clinic required size adjustment parameters of the isocenter beam spotof the rotating rack under through a transmission matrix method under the conditions that the beam current matching parameters of the transmission line end at the inlet of the rotating rack are not changed and the magnet parameters of the transmission line are not changed, and dynamically adjusting the size of the isocenter beam spot. The method is built on the basis of the beam optics and the beam transmission matrix theory, and is reliable in design. The implementation scheme exerts small requirements for the engineering implementation, and is of great significance to the stabilization of the beam in a process of proton therapy.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of particle radiotherapy (proton or heavy ion) device development, and more specifically relates to a method and system for dynamically adjusting the beam spot size of the isocenter of a rotating frame according to the mirror image ratio by using transmission matrix element matching. Background technique [0002] Particle radiotherapy is the current precision radiotherapy method for cancer. Based on the unique Bragg peak dose distribution characteristics of proton or heavy ion beams, the Bragg peak dose control at different depths can be achieved by adjusting the beam energy, thereby achieving precise radiation therapy. Usually, the type of medical particle accelerator is a cyclotron or a synchrotron. The beam is generated by the accelerator and transported by the transport line, and finally the precise positioning of the beam in the human body is realized through the rotating frame. [0003] For proton therapy devic...
