Heavy-ion radiotherapy with HIMAC
Heavy-ion beams are very suitable for the treatment of deeply seated cancer because of an excellent physical-dose distribution and high biological effect around the Bragg peak. Heavy-Ion Medical Accelerator in Chiba, HIMAC, therefore, was constructed for the cancer radiotherapy (RT) with heavy-ions. Since 1994, NIRS has conducted the HIMAC facility for

Current status and future perspective of carbon-ion radiotherapy
Radiation therapy for cancer by using heavy ions has attracted considerable attention. The accelerated heavy ions can deliver a high dose to a tumor while sparing surrounding normal tissue from undesired exposure because of their superior dose ...

Examination of fragment dose contribution in heavy ion radiotherapy.
Heavy-ion radiotherapy is an efficient method for the treatment of deep-seated tumors, because the stopping of ions in a tissue delivers the maximal absorbed dose to the tumor-affected areas with minimal damage to the healthy tissues. However, heavy ions can undergo nuclear reactions, giving products with lower Z-values and hence a longer range in the ...

Status and Future Plan of Heavy-Ion Cancer Radiotherapy Facility HIMAC
The first clinical trial with a carbon-ion beam generated from HIMAC was conducted in June 1994. The total number of patients treated was about 6,500 as of August 2012.
