Problems solved by technology

However, due to the limited lateral extent of the Bragg cell, a portion of the dose delivered by a single spot may be lost in the measurement, with the result that the measured IDD does not represent the complete IDD
If this difference is not accounted for, the modeled delivery may deviate significantly from the total delivered dose

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of obtaining energy spectra of focused ion beams. The present invention provides a method of obtaining the energy spectrum of a focused ion beam when measuring integrated depth dose IDD using a Bragg cell. The method comprises the steps of: simulating the dose of a nominal set of monoenergetic focused ion beams; determining the lateral extension of the Bragg chamber for evaluation; and by laterally integrating the simulated set of nominal monoenergetic ion beams over the lateral extension of the Bragg chamber. Focuses the dose of the ion beam, calculates a set of theoretical component IDD curves CIDD; stores the calculated CIDD; uses a Bragg peak cell, obtains the measured IDD of the focused ion beam with nominal energy; and performs a linear combination of CIDD on the measured IDD to determine the energy spectrum for a focused ion beam of nominal beam energy.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of radiation therapy, and in particular, to generating radiation therapy plans while confining to a subset of fluence elements. Background technique [0002] In ion beam therapy, an ion beam (eg, protons or heavy ions, such as carbon ions) is directed at a target volume. The target volume may, for example, represent a cancer tumor. The ions penetrate tissue and deliver a dose of energy to destroy cancer cells. One advantage of ion beam therapy is a pronounced peak in the dose distribution, known as the Bragg peak. The Bragg peak is the peak dose delivery that occurs at a certain depth, after which the dose delivery falls off rapidly. This can be compared to electron beam therapy or X-ray therapy, where the peak occurs very close to entering the tissue and the dose drop cannot be controlled with the same sharp drop as ion therapy. [0003] The depth of the Bragg peak in the patient can be controlled by adj...
