  The medical carbon synchrotron at maximal ion energy of 400 MeV/n was developed in JINR. The project goal is accumulation of the superconducting technology at construction of the carbon synchrotron with a circumference of 69.6 m on basis of the Nuclotron type magnet elements. For injection of the carbon ions it is proposed to use IH linac of C4+ at energy 4 MeV/n. The superconducting gantry is developed for patient treatment. The gantry consists of two 67.5° and one 90° bending sections, each including two similar dipole magnets of a low aperture (about 120 mm). Such gantries are intended for multiple raster scanning with a wide carbon beam and the technique of layer wise irradiation with a spread out Bragg peak of several mm.
