摘要:
The invention comprises a multi-field charged particle irradiation method and apparatus. Radiation is delivered through an entry point into the tumor and Bragg peak energy is targeted to a distal or far side of the tumor from an ingress point. Delivering Bragg peak energy to the distal side of the tumor from the ingress point is repeated from multiple rotational directions. Preferably, beam intensity is proportional to radiation dose delivery efficiency. Preferably, the charged particle therapy is timed to patient respiration via control of charged particle beam injection, acceleration, extraction, and/or targeting methods and apparatus. Optionally, multi-axis control of the charged particle beam is used simultaneously with the multi-field irradiation. Combined, the system allows multi-field and multi-axis charged particle irradiation of tumors yielding precise and accurate irradiation dosages to a tumor with distribution of harmful irradiation energy about the tumor.
