摘要:
An apparatus for engagement with a LINAC head of a LINAC machine, the LINAC machine generating radiation for intensity modulated radiation therapy of a cancer patient. The apparatus is a member incorporating separately a beam shaping material and a beam sculpting material. The member typically includes a tray and the tray is designed to fit into or adjacent the head of a LINAC machine. When radiation passes through the tray mounted member, it will be modulated and shaped to conform to the tumor of the cancer patient, which patient is radiated by the modified radiation beam.

摘要:
An integrated beam modifying assembly for use with a proton beam therapy machine. Typically the snouts of a proton beam therapy machine are adapted to receive separate apertures and range compensators. Applicants provide an integrated assembly for slotting into the snout of a proton beam therapy machine, which integrated assembly incorporates both aperture material and range compensator material for profiling, shaping, and modulating the beam.
