Abstract

The invention discloses a synchrocyclotron-based proton heavy ion therapy system. The system is characterized in that the treatment system adopts a synchrocyclotron to accelerate protons or heavy ionsto the highest energy required for treatment; For protons, the maximum energy is 235 MeV. The beam output from the synchrocyclotron enters the high energy transport line for focusing and deflection and is fed to the energy selector. The energy selector makes the beam energy continuously adjustable through the graphite energy reducer. The beam enters a single room and is sent to a rotating gantrysystem, which rotates by +- 185 DEG, allowing the beam to exit in all directions of 360 DEG. Compared with the cyclotron and the synchrotron, the invention can use a magnetic field of up to more than5T to reduce the volume weight of the accelerator, so as to be more compact; And the acceleration voltage requirements are small, reducing the cost of RF system and design difficulties.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of medical equipment, and in particular relates to a proton heavy ion therapy system based on a synchrocyclotron. Background technique [0002] Proton and heavy ion therapy technology is a kind of radiotherapy, and it is an internationally recognized cutting-edge radiotherapy technology. Different from traditional photon radiotherapy, protons and heavy ions can form energy Bragg peaks, which can limit the dose to the tumor area and reduce the damage to healthy tissues. [0003] Taking proton therapy as an example, the higher-energy protons required for radiotherapy are obtained by high-frequency resonance accelerators. Generally, a proton beam of 70-230 MeV is required to treat tumors with a depth of 30 cm to 315 cm. [0004] Proton heavy ion accelerators mainly include isochronous cyclotrons, synchrotrons, synchrocyclotrons and linear accelerators. The advantage of the isochronous cyclotron is that it is easy to o...
