Novel image guiding system for proton/heavy ion medical device system

Abstract

The invention discloses a novel image guiding system for a proton / heavy ion medical device system. The novel image-guided system comprises a base system for supporting an imaging system and a rotatingsystem and realizing the reciprocating motion of the imaging system; the imaging system for realizing image guiding and positioning functions including the main functions of a CBCT image guiding system and a two-dimensional imaging system, and having a laser positioning function; and the rotating system for enabling the imaging system to rotate around a patient by + / -180 degrees at a constant speed. The novel image guiding system can replace a large rotating frame in a traditional proton / heavy ion medical device and a large amount of electric power required by a rotation process of the largerotating frame so as to miniaturize a treatment room and achieve a lightweight treatment-end device, can accurately locate the tumor of the patient, has the functions of a two-dimensional imaging system, can switch to the CBCT image guiding system or the two-dimensional imaging system at any time according to the type and the position of the tumor, and integrates the CBCT image guiding system andthe two-dimensional imaging system in the conventional proton therapeutic equipment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of large-scale proton / heavy ion medical equipment, and relates to an image guidance system, specifically a new image guidance system used in proton / heavy ion medical equipment systems. The invention solves the problem of traditional proton / heavy ion treatment end equipment There are many types, large space, many resources and complex structure; the new system has the function of the current advanced CBCT image guidance system, and at the same time has the function of two-dimensional imaging positioning, so that the treatment end forms a single type, and in the same building scale and funds Under the same resource conditions, more treatment rooms and new image-guided systems can be designed. Background technique [0002] Large-scale medical proton therapy equipment has become mature internationally and has begun to be used domestically. Its treatment end plays an important role in the process of tumor treatment. The a...

Problems solved by technology

The auxiliary equipment at the treatment end - the image guidance system (such as CBCT image guidance system and two-dimensional imaging system), undertakes the positioning function of the lesion area during the proton medical treatment process. Due to the different types / functions of imaging devices, medical proton therapy is required The equipment needs to be equipped with no less than two types of treatment rooms and image guidance systems. The current image guidance system takes up a lot of space and uses a lot of resources. At the same time, the image guidance system of the rotating treatment room needs to be rotated together with the treatment head with the help of a cylindrical rotating frame , in this context, the present invention provides a new system with the functions of CBCT image guidance system and two-dimensional imaging system, which makes the image guidance system of the treatment end simple and replaces the traditional cylindrical rotating frame
