    摘要: A method of a radiotherapy or radiosurgery treatment comprises steps of: (a) providing a converging x-ray beam source configured for emitting a converging X-ray beam propagating along an axis thereof; (b) emitting the converging x-ray beam towards a volume of treatment (VOT) having a length along the axis of the converging X-ray beam ranging between 2 mm and 5 cm within a patient's body such that a waist portion is within the VOT; (c) propagating the beam through tissues previously located relative to the VOT (PO); the VOT per se and tissues distally located to the VOT (DO). The converging X-ray beam characterized by a convergent angle ranging between 2 and 30 degrees providing 80% to 100% of a maximum dose is received by the VOT and less than 60% of the maximum dose is received by the PO and the DO.

    摘要: The present invention provides a method for activating a pro-drug in vivo comprising the steps of: (a) administering a pro-drag to a subject; (b) locating a target site which has been at least partially dosed with the pro-drug at a predetermined concentration; and (d) exposing the target site to X-ray radiation. The step of exposing the target site to X-ray radiation is characterized by providing a converging X-ray of a controllable waist, substantially uniform at the target site, sufficient to convert the pro-drug to an active drug, while the X-ray photon dosage at the target site is higher than the X-ray photon dosage at an adjacent non target site.

    摘要: An X-ray lens arrangement for forming a radiation pattern as a focal track is disclosed. The pattern comprises at least one 3-dimensional focal track of radiation. The aforesaid lens arrangement has a main axis passing through intensity weighted centroids of the X-ray source and the pattern. The lens arrangement includes at least one reflecting surface of continuously varying Rowland arcs. Each point belonging to the focal track is linked to each elemental point composing an emitting surface of said source by a corresponding Rowland arc.

    摘要: A method of manufacturing burr-edged reflecting tile elements for a mosaic X-ray lens configured for forming an X-ray beam comprises steps of: (a) providing a single crystal having first and second faces thereof being parallel therebetween; single crystal having crystallographic planes thereof being parallel to first and second faces of the single crystal; the first face dedicated for reflecting an X-ray beam to be incident thereto; (b) cutting the single crystal by means of a wire electrical discharging machine normally to the main faces. The step of cutting the single crystal comprises moving a wire within a cut in direction from the second face to the first face; such that burrs configured for reflecting the X-ray beam to be incident thereto are formed on edges of the cut.
