    Abstract: A cabin type beam irradiation apparatus and a method for performing beam irradiation method are provided. According to an embodiment, the beam irradiation apparatus comprises: a gantry having a hollow frame structure, the hollow portion of which being formed as a treatment cabin; a first guide rail, which is fixedly arranged on the frame; a treatment head, which is slidably arranged on the first guide rail; and an entry door, which may be openably and closably arranged on the gantry. The beam irradiation apparatus can perform radiotherapy on patients in a standing or sitting posture. Imaging guidance is additionally used to ensure the accuracy of the treatment position, and thus highly focused radiation is achieved by (non)coplanar radiotherapy. Further, the apparatus may have self-shielding function, and can reduce the difficulty and cost for construction of a machine room.

    Abstract: In certain embodiments, an ophthalmic laser surgical system for imaging and treating a target in an eye includes a laser device, imaging system, and computer. The laser device directs the focus of a laser beam towards an intended location (x0, y0, z0) of the target to yield a cavitation bubble in the vitreous. The imaging system directs imaging beams towards the target, receives the imaging beams reflected from the eye, generates an image of the cavitation bubble from the reflected imaging beams, and measures an actual location (x, y, z) of the cavitation bubble according to the image. The computer determines an error vector that describes an error between the intended location and the actual location, determines a correction vector to compensate for the error, and instructs the laser device to use the correction vector to direct the laser beam towards the target to treat the target.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a computer-implemented method which encompasses comparing the requirements for radiation therapy imposed by a patient's individual condition to the capabilities and requirements of different types of treatment machines to determine a suitable radiation treatment strategy including an identification of the treatment machine which shall be used and a treatment plan. Furthermore, a treatment plan is generated by simulating the envisaged radiation treatment. The type of treatment machine associated with a predetermined value for the sum of weights for all fields assigned to that treatment machine is determined as the treatment machine for treating the patient, and corresponding information is output detailing the treatment specifics such as radiation treatment parameters specifically suited for the patient target region tumor thereby reducing radiation exposure, efficient use of the machine and appropriate gating and tracking modes.

    Abstract: In various embodiments, methods and devices are provided for generating a radiotherapy treatment plan for a subject to be implemented on a radiotherapy device. In certain embodiments the methods involve determining all feasible radiotherapy beam orientations free of collision for said radiotherapy device and said subject to provide a set of radiotherapy beam orientations; selecting from the set of all feasible radiotherapy beam orientations a subset of beams that meet treatment goals to be used in treatment of the subject to provide a selected beam set; calculating a navigation trajectory for the radiotherapy device to delivery said subset of beams to the subject where the trajectory is free of collision; and generating and writing instruction files to a tangible medium that can be executed by said radiotherapy device.
