THPP012 | Beam Injection Issues of FFAG for Particle Therapy | 3401 |
|
||
Spot scanning irradiation is a next generation treatment scheme of particle therapy. The pulsed beam of FFAG accelerator is well fitted to the treatment. In order to form a uniform dose distribution in the target volume, intensity modulation is a requirement in spot scanning and it requires special consideration in injection in order to realize short time treatment using the pulsed beam of the FFAG. In this paper, injection related issues of NS-FFAG are discussed from the point of particle therapy, especially for spot scanning. |
