Description

粒子束枪控制
发明领域
本发明涉及粒子束辐射领域。在一些实施方案中,放射系统和方法有助于快速而有效地产生粒子束。
背景技术
粒子束辐射可以被用于许多不同的应用中,并且准确地施加适当量的辐射可能是非常重要的。在医学治疗应用中施加准确剂量的粒子束辐射往往是至关重要的。粒子束放射治疗通常包括将粒子(例如,电离粒子、质子等)束引导在组织区域处。粒子通常与电荷相关联或包括所述电荷。粒子通常用于通过杀死靶组织细胞或降低其细胞分裂能力来停止所述靶组织细胞的生长或扩散。虽然粒子束辐射通常被视为是有益的,但是会存在许多潜在的副作用。副作用可以包括对健康组织细胞的DNA造成意想不到的损伤。粒子束辐射的效果主要随着施加到癌细胞,同时避免对健康组织的影响的带电粒子的剂量或量的变化而变化。
施加到组织的带电粒子的量通常随着带电粒子的剂量率或“电流”和靶组织暴露于辐射的时间的变化而变化。较快速的剂量率通常实现较短的暴露时间并且可以具有许多益处,包括发生影响治疗的无关事件的机会变小,生产率提高和给患者带来更大的便利。一种方法包括被称为FLASH放射治疗的超高剂量率治疗或模态。与FLASH治疗相关联的治疗窗口通常实现降低的正常组织毒性,同时维持癌组织肿瘤控制。然而,这些治疗窗口通常非常窄或精确,并且在窗口之外的暴露会非常不利于另外的健康组织。开发系统和方法来递送通常与FLASH治疗相关联的剂量率可能是困难的和有问题的。利用脉冲下降和伺服进行的常规尝试通常太粗糙并且无法提供足够的分辨率和保真度。
发明内容
所提供的系统和方法有助于对粒子束进行有效率和有效的监测。在一些实施方案中,一种放射枪系统包括:粒子束枪,所述粒子束枪产生粒子束;以及枪控制部件,所述枪控制部件控制枪粒子束产生特性,包括粒子束保真度特性。粒子束特性可以与FLASH放射治疗相容。对粒子束产生的分辨率控制可以实现在脉冲内水平和微团束水平下的剂量递送。微团束可以在5至15μsec脉冲宽度内的每个3GHz RF循环包括单独的团束。FLASH放射治疗剂量递送可以具有约4.4X10-6cGy/团束的团束水平分辨率。
放射枪系统粒子束枪可以包括光电阴极枪和弯转磁体,并且控制部件包括激光部件。光电阴极枪可以是第一短直线加速器的组成部分,并且可操作用于在受到激光激发时发射电子;弯转磁体可以操作用于使电子弯转并且为激发激光提供通往光电阴极的直线对传路径,所得的已弯转的射束然后被传送到第二直线加速器中以使所述射束加速至其最终能量。激光部件可以操作用于控制来自枪的电子发射的“选通”或开关。5μsec脉冲可以对应于约15K电子团束,所述电子团束利用光电阴极注入器的选通功能来进行选通以将剂量输出控制为接近每团束剂量的分辨率。
与光电阴极相比较实现更粗糙的剂量控制保真度的一种替代方法是利用具有快速选通电子器件的栅控电子枪。在一些实施方案中,选通可以在与脉冲上升/下降时间的瞬态相关联的脉冲降能扩散的中间或较平坦部分内启动。快速选通可以经由能够以实现团束选通分辨率的速率快速导通和关断的枪驱动器来实现。开/关选通可以是处于333psec的速率。
在一些实施方案中,一种放射方法包括:以周期性速率使放射治疗系统中的粒子形成脉冲,其中脉冲具有与超高剂量率相容的特性;通过直线加速器使粒子在射束中加速;以及将射束发射引导在靶标处。脉冲可以是处于微波范围。脉冲可以具有高保真度特性。粒子束特性可以与FLASH放射治疗相容。对粒子束产生的分辨率控制可以接近微团束水平。
在一些实施方案中,一种放射治疗系统包括:射束产生系统,所述射束产生系统产生并输送粒子束;喷嘴,所述喷嘴使射束瞄向对象内的各个位置;以及控制部件,所述控制部件接收规定的治疗计划并且引导所规定的治疗计划的执行。在一些示例性实现方式中,射束产生系统包括:粒子束枪,所述粒子束枪产生粒子束;以及枪控制部件,所述枪控制部件控制枪粒子束产生特性,包括粒子束保真度特性。粒子束特性与FLASH放射治疗相容。射束产生系统可以包括直线加速器并且包括将粒子束沿朝向和进入喷嘴的方向引导的部件。喷嘴可以安装在固定、旋转或可移动机架上或者是固定、旋转或可移动机架的一部分,使得所述喷嘴可以相对于支撑装置移动。枪子系统可以实现对粒子束产生的高分辨率控制。

具体实施方式
现将对在附图中示出其实例的本发明的优选实施方案进行详细参考。虽然将结合不同实施方案描述本发明,但是将理解,并不意图将本发明限于所述不同实施方案。相反,本发明意图覆盖可以包括在如由随附权利要求限定的本发明的精神和范围内的替代方案、修改和等效物。另外,在以下对本发明的详细描述中,阐述了众多特定细节以便于提供对本发明的透彻理解。然而,对于本领域的普通技术人员而言将显而易见的是,可以在没有这些特定细节的情况下实践本发明。在其他情况下,并未详细描述众所周知的方法、程序、部件和电路,以免不必要地模糊本发明的各方面。
所提供的系统和方法有助于对质子束产生进行有效率和有效的控制。在一些实施方案中,粒子束产生控制有助于在高保真度递送的情况下实现超高放射剂量率。所述系统和方法与脉冲宽度调制相容。在一些示例性实现方式中,定时控制分辨率被配置成促使递送保真度逼近脉冲内和微团束水平。微团束水平可以对应于某一脉冲宽度内每个射频循环中的单独的团束。射频可以是处于微波范围。在一些示例性实现方式中,所提供的系统和方法可以被用于FLASH放射治疗应用中。所述系统和方法还与多射野治疗方法相容并且可以使得每个小部分/射野的剂量递送能够被有效地控制。
图1是根据一些实施方案的示例性放射治疗系统100的框图。放射治疗系统100包括射束产生系统104、喷嘴107和控制系统110。射束产生系统104产生并输送粒子(例如,电子、质子、中子、光子、离子等)束。在一些实施方案中,多个粒子在基本上相同的方向上行进。在一些示例性实现方式中,在基本上相同的方向上行进的粒子包括在射束中。射束可以是原子核射束(例如,来自碳、氦、锂等)。射束可以被视为是相对很好定义的射束。
在一些实施方案中,射束产生系统104包括粒子加速器。粒子加速器可以包括直线加速器。所述系统与各种加速器(例如,连续波束质子加速器、等时性回旋加速器、脉冲质子加速器、同步回旋加速器、同步加速器等)相容。在一些实施方案中,加速器能够进行相对连续的波输出并且提取具有指定能量的粒子。这可以为每次注射或治疗应用提供高的连续波束电流以实现高剂量率。一次注射是在一段相对较短的时间内沿着线段穿过靶组织递送的剂量。注射可以包括在扫描模式中并且独立地加以调整(例如,在强度上、在射程上等调整)以辐照靶组织体积。加速器可以是较低功率输出回旋加速器,诸如使粒子加速到70-300MeV的范围的回旋加速器。初级粒子束发生器可以被配置成使二次光子发射的时间与粒子束产生相关联(例如,以进一步提高信噪比等)。
射束产生系统104包括枪子系统115。枪子系统115实现对粒子束产生的高分辨率控制。在一些实施方案中,枪子系统115与微波频率范围内的粒子束产生操作的定时控制相容。枪子系统115可以被用于放射治疗系统中来递送FLASH放射治疗。在本说明书的稍后部分中提供了对枪子系统的额外描述。
射束产生系统104可以包括引导(例如,弯转、转向、导引等)射束在朝向和进入喷嘴107的方向上通过所述系统的各种其他部件(例如,偶极磁体、弯转磁体等)。射束产生系统104还可以包括用于调整进入喷嘴107的射束能量的部件。在一些实施方案中,四极磁体组沿着射束路径定位在射束产生系统104中。在一些示例性实现方式中,放射治疗系统可以包括一个或多个多叶准直器(MLC)。MLC叶片可以通过控制系统110来独立地来回移动以使射束可以从中穿过的孔隙动态地成形。孔隙可以阻挡或不阻挡射束的部分并且由此控制射束形状和暴露时间。
喷嘴107可以用于使射束瞄向对象(例如,患者、靶组织等)内的各个位置。对象可以位于治疗室中的支撑装置108(例如,椅子、床、操作台、工作台等)上。喷嘴107可以安装在固定、旋转或可移动机架(未示出)上或者是所述固定、旋转或可移动机架的一部分,使得所述喷嘴可以相对于支撑装置108移动。支撑装置也可以是可移动的。在一些实施方案中,射束产生系统104也安装在机架上或者是机架的一部分。在一些其他实施方案中,射束产生系统与机架是分开的。在一些示例性实现方式中,单独的射束产生系统与机架进行通信。
在一些实施方案中,控制系统110接收规定的治疗计划并且引导所述规定的治疗计划的执行。在一些示例性实现方式中,控制系统110包括计算机系统,所述计算机系统具有处理器、存储器和用户接口部件(例如,键盘、鼠标、显示器等)。控制系统110可以控制射束产生系统104、喷嘴107和支撑装置108的参数,包括诸如射束的能量、强度、方向、尺寸和形状的参数。控制系统110可以接收有关系统100的操作的数据并且根据其所接收的数据来控制部件。数据可以包括在规定的治疗计划中。在一些实施方案中,控制系统110接收信息并且分析由放射治疗系统100提供的性能和治疗。监测器部件可以测量和跟踪射束电流和射束电荷,所述射束电流和射束电荷用于相应地推断出与剂量率和剂量大小的关系。在一些实施方案中,控制系统110可以基于对剂量和剂量率的分析而引导对放射治疗系统100的调整。
如上所述,进入喷嘴107的粒子束可以具有指定能量并且喷嘴107包括影响射束的能量的一个或多个射程移位和调节部件。在一些实施方案中,喷嘴107包括在“X和Y方向”上控制(例如,转向、导引、偏转、扫描等)射束粒子以扫描靶组织体积的部件,诸如磁体。靶组织体积可以是处于支撑装置108上的患者体内。喷嘴107还可以包括影响粒子束的能量的射束能量调整器。在一些示例性实现方式中,粒子束能量的调整可以用于控制:射束的射程(例如,射束穿透靶组织的程度等)、由射束递送的剂量、射束的深度剂量曲线,这取决于射束类型。例如,对于具有Bragg峰的质子束或离子束,射束能量调整器可以控制Bragg峰在靶组织中的位置。射束能量调整器可以包括各种部件(例如,射程调节器、射程移位器等)。射束系统104也可以包括用于调整进入喷嘴107的射束能量的部件。
放射治疗系统100可以被用于高剂量率治疗。一些治疗方法包括被称为FLASH放射治疗的超高剂量率治疗或模态。与FLASH治疗相关联的治疗窗口通常实现降低的正常组织毒性,同时维持癌组织肿瘤控制。在一些示例性实现方式中,FLASH放射治疗剂量率可以是在不到一秒内至少4格雷(Gy)以及在不到一秒内多达20Gy或40Gy。在一些示例性实现方式中,FLASH放射治疗剂量率可以是在不到一秒内超过40Gy。放射治疗系统和方法还与多射野治疗方法相容,其中不同的射野与特定治疗轨迹以及为总剂量递送的一部分或一小部分的每射野剂量相关联。
图2是根据一些实施方案的枪子系统200的框图。枪子系统类似于枪子系统115并且可以被用于放射治疗系统中来递送FLASH放射治疗。枪子系统200包括枪控制部件210和枪220。枪220产生粒子束。应了解,枪220可以是各种不同的枪类型。枪控制部件210控制枪粒子束产生特性,包括粒子束保真度特性。
粒子束保真度可以有助于利用各种治疗特征。治疗特征或特性可以包括高剂量率、多射野治疗计划、调强放射治疗(IMRT)等等。高剂量率方法可以有助于非常快速地递送规定剂量,从而减小辐射暴露时间窗口并且降低靶组织不期望地移动的可能性。更快速的递送还可以减少患者的不适和不便。可以使用多射野治疗计划,其中不同的射野与特定治疗轨迹以及为总剂量递送的一部分或一小部分的每射野剂量相关联。每射野递送剂量的一小部分通常会导致每射野治疗的减小的暴露时间间隔。应了解,多个治疗计划可以与短小或非常小的辐射暴露定时间隔相关联。一起应用多种治疗方法(例如,多个射野中的超高剂量率)会导致辐射暴露窗口非常小(例如,一秒中的一小部分等)。
枪控制部件210可以有助于粒子束产生,所述粒子束产生具有与非常短的辐射暴露间隔相容的定时分辨率和保真度特性。在一些实施方案中,枪子系统被配置成控制与高剂量率下射野剂量小部分的递送相关联的粒子束产生定时间隔。在一些示例性实现方式中,枪子系统可以根据脉冲宽度调制技术来控制粒子束产生。在一些实施方案中,取决于脉冲宽度和脉冲射频场(PRF),可以在数个脉冲内递送剂量。
在一些实施方案中,对粒子束产生的分辨率控制可以在脉冲内和微团束水平下实现剂量递送。在一些示例性实现方式中,微团束水平在5至15μsec脉冲宽度内每个3GHz RF循环包括单独的团束。将剂量递送控制为接近团束水平的能力可以将分辨率提高到约4.4X10-6cGy/团束。应了解,这个分辨率可能超过了一些治疗计划中所需的分辨率。在一些示例性实现方式中,分辨率控制能促成对剂量递送的约1%控制。所述处理或剂量分辨率在实施时可以用于弧形治疗。应了解,枪子系统可以包括各种实现方式。
在一些实施方案中,所述系统可以在100cm下递送20Gy/秒。在10kW的射束功率下,射束能量可以是20MeV,其中平均射束电流为0.5mA并且射束峰值电流为33mA。应了解,这些值是示例性的。在一些示例性实现方式中,系统和方法可以在这些值的某一范围内(例如,在1%内、在5%内、5%至20%等)操作。
图3是根据一些实施方案的示例性激光控制的枪子系统300的框图。枪子系统300包括光电阴极枪310、弯转磁体320和激光部件330。枪301包括光电阴极枪,所述光电阴极枪可操作用于在受到激光激发时发射电子。枪301可以是直线加速器的组成部分。直线加速器可以具有第一区段和第二区段,其中弯转部件联接在所述区段之间。弯转部件320可操作用于使由枪子系统和第一直线加速器区段加速的电子弯转。弯转部件可以包括影响或引导电子通过弯转件的弯转磁体。在一些实施方案中,弯转部件310被配置成为激发激光提供从激光部件330到包括在枪部件310中的光电阴极的直线对传路径。已弯转的粒子束被引导到第二直线加速器中以使粒子束加速至其最终能量。在一些实施方案中,粒子束能量可以在第二直线加速器之后调整。
激光部件330可操作用于控制来自枪的电子发射的“选通”或开关。在一些实施方案中,5usec脉冲对应于约15K电子团束,所述电子团束可以利用光电阴极注入器的开/关功能来开启和关闭,以将剂量输出控制为接近每团束剂量的分辨率。在一些实施方案中,以微波范围内的频率对激光进行脉冲。在一些示例性实现方式中,振荡是处于3GHz范围。在一些实施方案中,激光被脉冲远离波形的上升和下降瞬变部分。
图4是根据一些实施方案的示例性驱动器控制的枪子系统400的框图。枪子系统400包括栅控枪410和快速枪驱动器部件420。快速枪驱动器部件420能够快到以333psec导通和关断栅极,这进而实现团束选通分辨率。在一些实施方案中,快速枪驱动器部件420有助于脉冲内剂量递送控制。
图5是根据一些实施方案的粒子束产生方法500的框图。
在方框510中,以周期性速率对放射治疗系统中的粒子产生进行脉冲。脉冲可以是处于微波范围。在一些实施方案中,脉冲具有与超高剂量率相容的特性。脉冲可以具有高保真度特性。
在方框520中,通过直线加速器使粒子在射束中加速。在一些实施方案中,直线加速器包括使粒子加速的一部分。在一些示例性实现方式中,直线加速器包括使粒子减速的一部分。
在方框530中,将射束发射引导在靶标处。在一些实施方案中,粒子束包括电子,所述电子被引导在发射光子的靶标处并且光子被引导在靶组织处。在一些示例性实现方式中,粒子束包括被引导在靶组织处的电子。
应了解,除了医学应用之外,快速枪控制还可以具有其他应用,诸如高剂量率有助于各种特性的工业应用(例如,辐射加固、交联等)。
因此,所提供的系统和方法有助于有效率和有效地产生放射束。在一些实施方案中,脉冲宽度高剂量率控制系统和方法实现了相较于较粗糙的传统的枪控制脉冲下降和脉冲伺服方法而言提高的保真度。
