Problems solved by technology

It can be seen that in the existing neutron capture therapy system, the beam shaper designed according to the beryllium target can only be applied to the beryllium target. If it is to be replaced with a target made of other materials, it is necessary to redesign and install corresponding beams for different targets. special beam shaping body, design, construction and installation time is long, labor cost and manufacturing cost are high

Abstract

The invention discloses a neutron capture therapy system, being applicable to different targets, in particular comprising: a proton beam; a neutron generating part including a detachable target material on which a neutron beam is generated by proton beam bombardment; a beam shaping body for adjusting the neutron beam to conform to the treatment standard, comprising a moderator, a beam filter, a collimator, a target material of lithium or beryllium, a proton beam energy of a fixed value, a moderator, a reflector, a collimator and a beam filter of a fixed value in length and width; the target material can be replaced in lithium target and beryllium target without changing the energy of proton beam and the size of beam shaper. As a result, the neutron capture treatment system can be simultaneously applied to a lithium target and a beryllium target. When the target material is replaced by a lithium target or a beryllium target, the proton energy and the beam shaping body structure do not need to be changed, and the emitted neutron beam can still meet the irradiation requirements, so as to effectively treat the patient.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of neutron capture therapy, in particular to a neutron capture therapy system, in particular to a neutron capture therapy system applicable to different targets. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of modern medical technology, boron neutron capture therapy has been widely used in clinical medicine. [0003] BNCT (Boron Neutron Capture Therapy, Boron Neutron Capture Therapy) is a bio-targeted radiotherapy mode with "inherent" safety, by injecting non-toxic boron-containing drugs with pro-tumor tissue into human blood, waiting for boron drugs to After being enriched in tumor tissue, epithermal neutrons are used to irradiate the tumor site. Epithermal neutrons enter human tissue and can interact with 10 The B nuclide undergoes a radiation capture reaction, releasing α particles ( 4 He) and lithium particles ( 7 Li). Due to the short range of these particles (similar to the diameter of the tissu...
