Problems solved by technology

[0005] The problem with prior art radiotherapy machines is their limited throughput, ie in terms of the total number of patients who can be treated in a given time interval
Even though this treatment system uses the same ion source and beam accelerator system for all three gantry, the problems found above with respect to (low) patient throughput and cost efficiency still exist in each gantr

Embodiment Construction

[0045] Through these drawings, the same reference features will be used for corresponding or similar elements.

[0046] The present invention relates to a radiation system or equipment, which can be used to provide a radiation beam to enter multiple (for example, at least two) irradiation rooms or treatment rooms. The gantry is suitable for arranging to be connected with multiple treatment rooms separated by radiation separation or radiation protection isolation members. The gantry mechanically supports a rotating head. The rotating head can move between different positions relative to the gantry (and the isolation member) to guide a radiation beam into different treatment rooms.

[0047] Through such a gantry design, it is possible to irradiate, for example, deliver a radiation therapy dose to the first object or patient in the first treatment room, while allowing the same radiation delivery system and gantry to serve at least one in another treatment room. A second subject prepa...

Abstract

The present invention refers to a radiation system (1) comprising an excentric gantry (100) arranged in connection with multiple treatment rooms (61-68) separated by radiation-shielding separating members (71-78). A movable rotation head (120) is connected to the gantry (100) and is able to move between, and direct a radiation beam (110) into, the treatment rooms (61-68). A simulator head (200-1 to 200-8) is preferably arranged together with the radiation system so it can be used in each respective treatment room (61-68). In such a case, while a first subject (40-1) is being irradiated in a first room (61), a treatment set-up procedure, including correct positioning of subjects (40-2 to 40-8) and irradiation simulation, can simultaneously take place for the other subjects (40-2 to 40-8) in the other treatment rooms (62 to 68).

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to a radiation system, and more particularly to such a system capable of guiding a radiation beam to multiple treatment rooms. Background technique [0002] In the past few decades, the field of radiotherapy and diagnosis has developed significantly. External beam radiotherapy accelerators, brachytherapy and other professional radiotherapy instruments have all been greatly improved. The development of quality and adaptability of therapeutic radiation beams includes: new objects and filters, improved accelerators, refractive index for beam shaping through new transmitters, collimators and scanning systems, and beam compensation Technology etc. Improved dosimetry and geometric treatment confirmation methods were also introduced. In addition, a new treatment planning system that can achieve biological optimization of the output beam intensity distribution is now available. [0003] In the field of multiple and single seg...
