Design of a compact gantry for carbon-ion beam therapy

Physical Review Accelerators and Beams, 2019
This paper presents the design of a compact gantry that uses superconducting bending magnets (BMs), for use in carbon-ion beam therapy. The size of the gantry is comparable to those of existing gantries that are used for proton-beam therapy. The designed

Clinical feasibility study of a 2D ripple filter to improve the efficiency of carbon ion therapy [PDF]

Zhongguo aizheng zazhi
Background and purpose: The ripple filter (RiFi) is a passive energy modulator used in particle beam therapy to broaden the Bragg peak. The 1D-RiFi features a wavy structure that can broaden a monoenergetic carbon ion beam to 3 mm, while the 2D-RiFi ...

Clinical Viability of an Active Spot Scanning Beam Delivery System With a Newly Developed Carbon-Ion Treatment Planning System

Advances in Radiation Oncology
Purpose: Although active spot scanning irradiation technique is theoretically superior to passive-scattered broad beam irradiation with respect to normal tissue sparing, corroborations of the clinical benefit of carbon-ion spot scanning have remained ...

Are Further Cross Section Measurements Necessary for Space Radiation Protection or Ion Therapy Applications? Helium Projectiles

Frontiers in Physics, 2020
The helium (4He) component of the primary particles in the galactic cosmic ray spectrum makes significant contributions to the total astronaut radiation exposure. 4He ions are also desirable for direct applications in ion therapy. They contribute smaller
