    摘要: A particle beam treatment apparatus and an irradiation nozzle apparatus achieve a beam with a small diameter by a beam scanning irradiation method, and ensure a space for installation of a beam transport chamber in the irradiation nozzle apparatus. An X-ray tube is located outside the scanning type irradiation nozzle apparatus that includes scanning magnets, while an X-ray tube is located in an irradiation nozzle apparatus in a conventional structure. An X-ray detector is located inside the irradiation nozzle apparatus. The thickness of the X-ray detector in the direction of a beam axis is smaller and the structure thereof is simpler than that of the X-ray tube. This makes it possible to ensure the space for installation of the beam transport chamber in the irradiation nozzle apparatus and to increase the length of the beam transport chamber that is included in the irradiation nozzle apparatus. It is, therefore, possible to suppress scattering of a beam due to air during transport of the beam and reduce the diameter of the beam compared with a conventional apparatus.

    摘要: A scanning magnet (28, 29) of an irradiation nozzle (27) is controlled to irradiate the ion beam irradiated from a synchrotron accelerator to a target position P i,j of a spot i,j in a certain layer L i of a target volume, using a scanning control apparatus (40). A deviation D j between the target position P i,j and an actual irradiation position Pa i,j is obtained. Using the deviation D j , a systematic error Es i,j and a random error Er i,j of the actual irradiation position Pa i,j are obtained. Whether the systematic error Es i,j exists within a first permissible range of the systematic error Es i,j is determined. Whether the random error Er i,j exists within a second permissible range of the random error Er i,j is determined. When the systematic error Es i,j or the random error Er i,j is deviated from the permissible range, the irradiation of the ion beam to the target volume is stopped.

    摘要: The charged particle beam irradiation system (1) includes a charged particle beam generating unit for accelerating a charged particle beam, scanning electromagnets for scanning the charged particle beam, a beam irradiation apparatus (5) for irradiating the accelerated charged particle beam to irradiation spots of an irradiation target, beam radiation dose measuring instrument (s) (59) for obtaining a dose of the charged particle beam passing through the beam irradiation apparatus, and a beam position measuring instrument for obtaining one or both of the position and the width of the beam scanned by the scanning electromagnets. The beam position measuring instrument (58) obtains one or both of the position and the width of the beam for each irradiation spot and determines whether the obtained result is within an allowable range and obtains one or both of the position and the width of the charged particle beam for each split during irradiation to the spot with the charged particle beam regarding a split of which a dose is managed by dividing a part of or all of irradiation spots into irradiation sections and determines whether the obtained result is within an allowable range.
