The proton beam produced by the novel laser plasma accelerator is used for tumor radiotherapy, which is a technical scheme of proton radiotherapy based on a rapidly developed laser acceleration technology. Because the laser plasma accelerator has an acceleration gradient which is higher than that of the traditional proton accelerator (circular, synchronous or linear) by a plurality of orders of magnitude, the laser plasma accelerator can greatly improve the compactness degree of equipment on the basis of the current proton radiotherapy device so as to solve the difficulties of large occupied area, high equipment cost, high operation and maintenance cost and the like of the current proton radiotherapy equipment.
The dose delivery systems currently used in conventional proton radiotherapy devices can be broadly divided into two categories: one type is an active dose delivery system represented by a scanning treatment head, which is characterized in that active control over proton beam current is realized through scanning magnets in two directions, and dose delivery is completed in a point scanning or grid scanning mode; the other type of passive dose delivery system is represented by a scattering therapy head, and is characterized in that transverse expansion of proton beam current is completed through a scattering body, and shaping of proton energy spectrum is completed by matching with an energy modulation wheel or a ridge filter so as to achieve the purpose of proton dose delivery.
Considering that the property of a proton beam driven by a laser plasma accelerator is greatly different from that of a proton beam generated by a traditional accelerator (large energy dispersion, large dispersion angle and the like), the dose delivery system used for the traditional proton radiotherapy device at present cannot well match the characteristic of the laser accelerated proton beam, and is particularly characterized in that the traditional scanning treatment head system requires high quality of the proton beam, the traditional scattering treatment head system has limited improvement on the uniformity of the proton beam and faces the problem of small beam utilization rate, and the proton beam with large energy dispersion and large dispersion angle cannot be fully utilized for dose delivery.
