Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a radiation irradiation system, and more particularly, to a neutron capture therapy system.
Background
With the development of atomic science, radiation therapy such as cobalt sixty, linac, electron beam, etc. has become one of the main means for cancer therapy. However, the traditional photon or electron treatment is limited by the physical condition of the radioactive rays, and a large amount of normal tissues on the beam path can be damaged while killing tumor cells; in addition, due to the different sensitivity of tumor cells to radiation, traditional radiotherapy often has poor therapeutic effects on malignant tumors with relatively high radiation resistance (such as glioblastoma multiforme (glioblastoma multiforme) and melanoma (melanoma)).
In order to reduce radiation damage to normal tissue surrounding a tumor, the concept of target treatment in chemotherapy (chemotherapy) has been applied to radiotherapy; for tumor cells with high radiation resistance, radiation sources with high relative biological effects (relative biological effectiveness, RBE) such as proton therapy, heavy particle therapy, neutron capture therapy, etc. are also actively developed. The neutron capture treatment combines the two concepts, such as boron neutron capture treatment, and provides better cancer treatment selection than the traditional radioactive rays by means of the specific aggregation of boron-containing medicaments in tumor cells and the accurate neutron beam regulation.
Various radioactive rays, such as neutrons and photons with low to high energy, are generated in the radiotherapy process, and may cause different degrees of damage to normal tissues of a human body. Therefore, in the field of radiotherapy, it is an extremely important task to reduce radiation pollution to the external environment, medical staff or normal tissues of a patient while achieving effective treatment.

Embodiments of the invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the drawings to enable those skilled in the art to practice the invention by reference to the description. An XYZ coordinate system (see fig. 2 and 3) in which the X axis is the direction of the charged particle beam P emitted from the accelerator, the Y axis is the direction perpendicular to the direction of the charged particle beam P emitted from the accelerator, and the Z axis is the direction perpendicular to the ground is set, and X, Y, Z is used for explaining the positional relationship of the components.
As shown in fig. 1, the neutron capture therapy system in the present embodiment is preferably a boron neutron capture therapy system 100, and the boron neutron capture therapy system 100 is a device for cancer treatment using boron neutron capture therapy. Boron neutron capture therapy treatment of cancer by irradiating a patient 200 injected with boron (B-10) with a neutron beam N, after the patient 200 takes or injects the boron (B-10) containing drug, the boron containing drug is selectively accumulated in tumor cells M, and then the boron (B-10) containing drug is utilized to have a characteristic of high capture cross section for thermal neutrons by 10 B(n,α) 7 Li neutron capture and nuclear fission reaction generation 4 He (He) 7 Li two heavy charged particles. The average energy of the two charged particles is about 2.33MeV, the particles have high linear transfer (Linear Energy Transfer, LET) and short range characteristics, and the linear energy transfer and range of the alpha short particles are 150keV/μm and 8 μm respectively 7 The Li heavy charge particles were 175 keV/. Mu.m, 5 μm, and the total range of the two particles was approximately equivalent to one cell size, becauseThe radiation injury to organisms can be limited at the cell level, so that the aim of killing tumor cells locally can be fulfilled on the premise of not causing too great injury to normal tissues.
The boron neutron capture therapy system 100 includes an accelerator 10, a beam transport section 20, a neutron beam generation section 30, and a therapy table 40. The accelerator 10 accelerates charged particles (e.g., protons, deuterons, etc.) to produce a charged particle beam P, such as a proton beam; a beam transmission unit 20 that transmits the charged particle beam P generated by the accelerator 10 to a neutron beam generation unit 30; the neutron beam generator 30 generates a therapeutic neutron beam N and irradiates the patient 200 on the treatment table 40.
The neutron beam generating section 30 includes a target T, a beam shaping body 31, and a collimator 32, and the charged particle beam P generated by the accelerator 10 is irradiated to the target T via the beam transmitting section 20 and reacts with the target T to generate neutrons, and the generated neutrons sequentially pass through the beam shaping body 31 and the collimator 32 to form a therapeutic neutron beam N and irradiate the therapeutic neutron beam N to the patient 200 on the therapeutic table 40.

The energy threshold values of the two nuclear reactions are respectively 1.881MeV and 2.055MeV, because the ideal neutron source for boron neutron capture treatment is epithermal neutrons with the energy level of keV, in theory, if protons with the energy only slightly higher than the threshold value are used for bombarding a metal lithium target material, relatively low-energy neutrons can Be generated, the clinical application can Be realized without too much retarding treatment, however, the proton action cross sections of the two targets of lithium metal (Li) and beryllium metal (Be) and the threshold energy are not high, and in order to generate enough neutron flux, protons with higher energy are generally selected to trigger the nuclear reactions. The ideal target should have high neutron yield, a neutron energy distribution close to that of the epithermal neutron energy region (described in detail below), no too much intense penetrating radiation, safety, low cost, easy operation, and high temperature resistance, but practically no nuclear reaction meeting all the requirements can be found. The target T can also Be made of Li, be, as is well known to those skilled in the artThe other metal materials are made of, for example, ta or W, an alloy thereof, or the like. The accelerator 10 may be a linear accelerator, a cyclotron, a synchrotron.
