In vivo pink-beam imaging and fast alignment procedure for rat brain lesion microbeam radiation therapy
A fast 50 microm-accuracy alignment procedure has been developed for the radiosurgery of brain lesions in rats, using microbeam radiation therapy. In vivo imaging was performed using the pink beam (35-60 keV) produced by the ID17 wiggler at the ESRF opened at 120 mm and filtered. A graphical user interface has been developed in order to define the irradiation field size and to position the targ...
متن کاملBeam Monitors of Nirs Fast Scanning System for Particle Therapy
At National Institute of Radiological Sciences (NIRS), more than 6500 patients have been successfully treated by carbon-ion beams since 1994. The successful results of treatments have led us to construct a new treatment facility equipped with three-dimensional pencil beam scanning irradiation system. The commissioning of NIRS fast scanning system installed into the new facility was started in S...
متن کاملMicrobeam radiation therapy.
It is proposed to carry out radiotherapy and radiosurgery for brain lesions by crossfiring an array of parallel, closely spaced microbeams of synchrotron-generated x rays several times through an isocentric target, each microbeam in the array having an approximately 25-microns-wide adjustable-height rectangular cross section. The following inferences from the known tissue sparing of 22-MeV deut...
متن کاملBeam Transverse Profile Monitors for Ifmif-eveda
In the framework of the IFMIF-EVEDA project, a high deuteron beam intensity (125 mA 9 MeV) prototype accelerator will be built and tested at Rokkasho (Japan). CEA-Saclay group and CIEMAT-Madrid (Spain) are responsible for the beam instrumentation from the ion source to the beam dump. One of the most challenging diagnostic is the Beam Transverse Profile Monitor. Two kinds of monitor are investig...
متن کاملBeam Profile Monitors in the Nlcta *
The transverse current profile in the Next Linear Collider Test Accelerator (NLCTA) electron beam can be monitored at several locations along the beam line by means of profile monitors. These consist of insertable phosphor screens, light collection and transport systems, CID cameras, a frame-grabber, and PC and VAX based image analysis software. In addition to their usefulness in tuning and ste...
