Development of a compact superconducting rotating-gantry for heavy-ion therapy
An isocentric superconducting rotating-gantry for heavy-ion therapy is being developed [1]. This rotating gantry can transport heavy ions having 430 MeV/u to an isocenter with irradiation angles of over ±180°, and is further capable of performing fast raster-scanning irradiation [2]. A layout of the beam-transport line for the compact rotating-gantry is presented in Fig. 1. The rotating gantry ...
متن کاملDevelopment of Qa System for the Rotating Gantry for Carbon Ion Therapy at Nirs
At the National Institute of Radiological Sciences (NIRS), we have been developing the rotating-gantry system for the carbon-ion radiotherapy. This system is equipped with a three-dimensional pencil beam scanning irradiation system. To ensure the treatment quality, calibration of the primary dose monitor, range check, dose rate check, machine safety check, and some mechanical tests should be pe...
متن کاملA Superconducting Solenoid for Heavy Ion Beam Focusing
A 6 T superconducting solenoid has been constructed to focus heavy ion beams on the production target of radio isotope beams. The design field on axis is 6.2 T with an average current density of 9,600 A/cm. The overall coil length is 1.1 meter, and the coil is divided into three equal-length sections to ease winding and to reduce IR drop through diode connection. A main feature of the system is...
متن کاملRecent Progress and Future Plan of Heavy-ion Radiotherapy Facility, Himac
The carbon-ion radiotherapy (RT) with HIMAC has been conducted since 1994, and the accumulated treatment number exceeded 9,000 in May 2014. During the last two decades, NIRS has developed both the accelerator and beam-delivery technologies related to the carbon-ion RT, which has brought several carbon-ion RT facilities in Japan. At present, NIRS has developed a carbon-ion rotating gantry with t...
