Beam characteristic of P.E collimators Add-on multileaf collimator
Introduction: Multileaf collimators (MLCs) are computer-controlled devices which are Useful and cost-effective tools for conformal therapy and intensity modulation radiotherapy (IMRT). Nowadays MLCs are important and standard configuration of the new medical linear accelerators which are substitute of conventional Blocks and has eliminated the ...
متن کاملCrystal experiments on efficient beam extraction
Silicon crystal was channeling and extracting 70-GeV protons from the U-70 accelerator with efficiency of 85.3±2.8% as measured for a beam of ∼10 12 protons directed towards crystals of ∼2 mm length in spills of ∼2 s duration. The experimental data follow very well the prediction of Monte Carlo simulations. This success is important to devise a more efficient use of the U-70 accelerator in Prot...
متن کاملProtein microcrystallography using synchrotron radiation
The progress in X-ray microbeam applications using synchrotron radiation is beneficial to structure determination from macromolecular microcrystals such as small in meso crystals. However, the high intensity of microbeams causes severe radiation damage, which worsens both the statistical quality of diffraction data and their resolution, and in the worst cases results in the failure of structure...
متن کامل“Crystal Collimator” Measurement of CESR particle-beam Source Size
We have measured electron and positron beam source size at CHESS when the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR) is run dedicated for the production of synchrotron radiation. Horizontal source size at several beamlines is expected to shrink by a factor of two but synchrotron (visible) light measurements only provide the vertical size. Therefore a “crystal collimator” using two Bragg reflection in...
متن کاملSPECT using a specially designed cone beam collimator.
A specially designed high resolution converging collimator having a focal length of 50 cm has been evaluated for cone beam single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). The focal region was investigated by imaging a point source placed at the expected focal point and along the central ray of the collimator in front of and behind the focal point. Technetium-99m point source sensitivities m...
