For the purpose of simultaneous real-time observation of irradiation effects in the patients body during a heavy ion cancer treatment, the capability of acceleration of radioactive ion beam such as 11C has been investigated where an ISOL based ion source combined with a cyclotron was assumed. According to recent development of a single charged 11C ion source and its charge breeder*, it becomes to be important to estimate the intensities attainable by acceleration of such radioactive beam with the use of HIMAC and its injector quantitatively taking the beam dynamics into account. In the present paper, phase space matching of the secondary produced radioactive 11C ion beam is investigated among the ion source, injector linac and HIMAC synchrotron, referring to the ISOLDE system at CERN.
