Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and a device for controlling a radiation device for heavy ions or protons with beam extraction which operates according to the raster scanning method, the beam energy, beam focusing and beam intensity being set for each accelerator cycle.
- the raster scanning method consists of a combination of transverse deflection of a focused particle beam in fast dipole magnets with variation of the beam energy in the accelerator to determine the particle range.
- the virtual segmentation of the treatment volume as part of an irradiation plan is illustrated in FIG. 3.
- a series of cuts of constant particle energy (isoenergy cuts IES) is created.
- the isoenergy cuts are in turn segmented into a grid of beam positions and particle coverage is optimized for each individual beam position.
- an accelerator cycle with the three adjustable parameters of beam energy, beam focusing and beam intensity is currently being defined.
- the cycle duration and thus the duration of the beam extraction is set to a fixed value.
- This procedure has disadvantages, because isoenergy cuts cannot necessarily be processed with an accelerator cycle, rather a beam extraction time that is up to a factor of 10 would be required.
- the acceleration and deceleration times associated with the use of several accelerator cycles, as well as the times required for preparing the accelerator result in an additional expenditure of time which is of the order of magnitude of the extraction time.
- conditioning cycles i.e. accelerator cycles without beam extraction, which are necessary to produce defined field conditions.
- the magnets of the accelerator and the beam guides must take place without irradiation being able to be carried out.
- the invention is based on the object of designing a control system for an irradiation device operating according to the raster scanning method in such a way that a high degree of utilization results with a reduced irradiation time.
- a method for controlling a radiation device for heavy ions or protons with beam extraction which operates according to the raster scanning method, is thus proposed, in which the beam energy, beam focusing and beam intensity are set for each accelerator cycle.
- the beam extraction is also defined for each accelerator cycle.
- the invention is therefore used in cyclically running accelerators.
- the duration of the beam extraction is advantageously set for each accelerator cycle. Due to the variable beam extraction time (fiattop time), the radiation dead times due to renewed accelerator cycle requirements can be greatly reduced, which results in considerable time savings and significantly higher patient throughputs.
- the method according to the invention is to be used in a DC (direct current) machine, for example in a cyclotron, the time structure of the beam (ON / OFF) and the necessary flexibility of the beam parameters (energy, intensity, focus) have to be produced in another way respectively.
- the beam extraction can be interrupted and resumed during an accelerator cycle.
- This variant is particularly suitable for irradiation of non-contiguous areas with constant radiation energy, possibly also constant beam focus and intensity.
- the above-mentioned measures for determining the beam extraction such as variable and interruptible beam extraction, changeable focus and intensity, result in highly flexible beam request mechanisms.
- the irradiation time can be reduced enormously.
- the measure, field regulation of the accelerator magnet supply and beam guidance can largely or completely dispense with the conditioning cycles mentioned at the outset, since the extracted treatment beam can be made available in a stable and precise manner.
- a device according to the invention for controlling an irradiation device for heavy ions with beam extraction operating according to the raster scanning method, in particular for carrying out the method according to the invention has a setting device for the beam extraction duration of each accelerator cycle. It preferably comprises a device for interrupting and resuming the extraction beam within half an accelerator cycle. According to a preferred exemplary embodiment of the invention, extraction and / or injection kickers, that is to say fast magnets, are provided for this purpose. Alternatively, a device for KO extraction of the extraction beam can also be provided.
- an adjusting device is provided for changing the focus and / or intensity of the extraction beam during an accelerator cycle.
- FIG. 1 is an illustration of an irradiation plan according to the invention, which contains non-contiguous areas that are to be irradiated with the same beam parameters,
- FIG 3 shows an illustration of a virtual segmentation of the treatment volume carried out as part of radiation planning with a series of isoenergy sections (IES).
- the radiation plans shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 show the synchroton dipole field in the upper part, time being plotted on the abscissa and energy on the ordinate.
- the lower diagram shows the intensity of the extraction beam, the intensity being plotted against the treatment time.
- FIG. 1 clearly shows the time saving that can be achieved by the invention.
- the particle impulses could be reduced by covering different areas with a beam extraction by beam interruption. In the present example, instead of three particle pulses, this results in a single particle pulse with fewer dead times.
- the representation of FIG. 1 is not an empirically obtained representation, but is based on the analysis of 46 radiation plans carried out in 2000. The reduction in the mean irradiation time resulted in a reduction from 251 to 87 seconds, practically a third of the time.
