This tumor treatment is based on the shape and position of the tumor, and the irradiation plan such as the absolute line quantity, the line quantity distribution, and the irradiation position is set up, and the irradiation particle line must be irradiated with good precision according to the irradiation plan ^. When the patient is exposed to protons, the accuracy of the irradiation position is particularly important in order to avoid exposure to vital organs, brainstem, optic nerve, and spinal cord. Then, the proton therapy device suitable for the treatment of such tumors has an irradiation chamber (rotary support) that has a proton beam irradiation portion that is rotatable around the patient, thereby improving the freedom of movement of the proton beam irradiation portion. Degree (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). [Patent Document 1] Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. Hei No. Hei. No. Hei. No. Hei. No. Hei. No. Hei. Hei. Which position of the illuminating body. Therefore, it has been developed to use a PET camera to detect the positron emission nucleus generated by the nuclear reaction from both by irradiating the charged particle beam of the irradiated body of 200836792*2乂** and the nucleus of the irradiated body. Ray, a technique used to detect the position of the charged particle beam. However, in this technique, since the pet camera is fixed and only the position of the specific portion can be confirmed, it is required to confirm the position of the desired portion. The present invention has been made in an effort to solve such a problem, and an object of the invention is to provide a charged particle beam irradiation apparatus capable of confirming an irradiation position at a desired portion. φ The charged particle beam irradiation apparatus according to the present invention includes an irradiation chamber having a charged particle beam irradiation unit that is rotatable around the object to be irradiated by the charged particle beam, and is characterized in that a pair of detection units are provided. The object to be irradiated is placed on both sides, and is used to detect the extinction r-ray generated by the object to be irradiated, and the % of the extension of the central axis of rotation of the charged particle beam irradiation unit is regarded as the X-axis direction, and the detecting portion can be Moves in the X-axis direction. ^ The charged particle beam irradiation apparatus configured as described above includes an irradiation chamber having a charged particle beam irradiation unit that is rotatable around the object to be irradiated, and a detection unit for detecting the r-ray generated by the object to be irradiated The movement is set so as to be movable in the X-axis direction in which the center axis of rotation of the charged particle beam irradiation unit is extended. Thereby, the detection unit can be prevented from interfering with the rotation of the charged particle beam irradiation unit so that the detection unit moves in the X-axis direction. Further, when the irradiated body is carried in and out of the irradiation chamber, the detecting portion does not become an obstacle. Also, confirm the location of the desired part. Further, since the detecting portion can be moved in the X-axis direction in accordance with the size of the irradiated body, the detection range of the detecting portion can be enlarged. Here, it is preferable to set the detecting portion so as to be rotatable around the X-axis. Thereby, the detecting unit can rotate around the object to be irradiated to improve the degree of freedom of movement of the detecting unit -6-200836792 _ _ -., ^ , - - - , so that it can be irradiated with fj by a small-sized detecting unit (for example, a PET camera). 3-dimensional measurement of position. Further, it is preferable that the detecting unit rotates in accordance with the rotation of the charged particle beam irradiation unit. Thereby, the irradiation position can be measured while maintaining the positional relationship between the charged particle beam and the detecting portion which are irradiated by the charged particle beam irradiation unit. Further, it is preferable that the detecting portion is integrally rotated with the charged particle beam irradiation portion. Thereby, the rotation drive unit that rotates the charged particle beam irradiation unit can be rotated, and the detection unit can be rotated. Therefore, it is not necessary to separately provide the rotation drive unit in order to rotate the detection unit. Further, it is preferable that the inspection/measurement section is set to be movable in a direction in which they approach each other. By moving the detecting portions disposed on both sides so as to move toward each other, the detecting portion can be brought close to the object to be irradiated to measure the irradiation position, and the measurement accuracy can be improved. ‘And, the orthogonal direction of the X-axis direction is taken as the Y-axis direction, and it is preferable to set the detection unit so that it can rotate around the Y-axis. Thereby, the degree of freedom of movement of the detecting unit* is further improved, and since the irradiation position can be measured from various directions, the measurement accuracy can be further improved. Further, since the detection unit can be rotated around the predetermined axis extending in the Y-axis direction to change the position of the detection unit, for example, when the detection unit has a vertically long shape, the longitudinal direction of the detection unit is aligned along the X-axis direction. * The setting method makes it easy to move the detection unit in the X-axis direction. According to the charged particle beam irradiation apparatus of the present invention, since the detection portion can be moved in the X-axis direction, it is possible to prevent the detection portion from blocking the rotation of the charged particle beam irradiation portion. Further, when the object to be irradiated is carried in and out of the irradiation chamber, the detecting portion does not become an obstacle. Further, since the detection unit can be moved in the x-axis direction in accordance with the size of the object to be irradiated 200836792, the irradiation position in the desired portion can be confirmed. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, a preferred first embodiment of a charged particle k-ray irradiation apparatus according to the present invention will be described with reference to Figs. 1 to 5 . In the description of the drawings, the same or corresponding elements are designated by the same reference numerals, and the repeated description is omitted. This Φ embodiment is directed to a case where the charged particle beam irradiation device is used as a proton therapy device. As shown in Fig. 1 to Fig. 3, the proton therapy device 100 is a device that irradiates a proton (charged particle beam) to a tumor (irradiation target) P in a patient (irradiated body) 51. The proton therapy device 100 includes a proton beam irradiation unit (charged particle irradiation unit) 1 attached to the rotating holder 103 (irradiation chamber) and surrounding the treatment table (mounting table) 105. Rotate. # The proton beam irradiation unit 1 includes an irradiation control unit 17 for controlling the irradiation direction A of the proton line in order, and sequentially passing the proton beam beam to shape the beam as shown in Fig. 3 The scatterer 5, the ridge filter section 7, the precision degrader 9, the block type collimator 1 1, the rapid injection 1 3, the multi-leaf quasi-finger 1 5, and the driving of each part of the apparatus. The proton line generated by the cyclotron 3 functioning as a proton generating unit is sent to the proton beam irradiating unit 1 by a transport device. Then, the fine sub-wires to be fed are diffused in the direction of the orthogonal -8-200836792 in the irradiation direction A by, for example, a scatterer (beam expanding portion) 5 composed of lead having a thickness of several mm. Expand into a beam with a large width. The proton beam beam from the scatterer 5 corresponds to the thickness (length of the irradiation direction A) of the tumor P in the body of the patient 51, and enters the ridge filter portion (peak 値 adjustment filter portion) 7, which is ridged. The shape filter section is used to maintain the energy depth distributed over the proton line. The ridge filter portion 7 has a plurality of filters 7a formed by a metal rod having a thickness varying in steps and arranged in a curtain shape. The plurality of filters 7a form protons by different shapes of the metal rods. The line expands the Prague peak (hereinafter referred to as "SOBP"). Then, the ridge filter portion 7 is driven by the control of the irradiation control unit 17, and has a mechanism for inserting a filter appropriately selected from the plurality of filters 7a into the proton line passing position. With this configuration, the ridge filter portion 7 can selectively change the width of the SOBP peak of the proton beam by selectively changing the filter 7a through which the proton beam passes. By the proton line of the ridge filter portion 7, the beam energy is adjusted in accordance with the depth of the tumor P in the patient's body, that is, the depth of the tumor P in the patient's body, and is incident on the precision energy reducer (beam) for adjusting the maximum depth of arrival. Energy adjustment unit) 9 . The precision degrader 9 is composed of, for example, two opposing polypropylene stoppers 9a, 9b forming a wedge shape, and the stoppers 9a, 9 are adjusted by the control of the irradiation control unit 17. The overlapping mode of b can continuously change the thickness of the proton line passing through the split. The proton line loses energy due to the thickness of the material passing through, changing the depth of arrival in the body of the patient 51. Therefore, by adjusting the precision energy reducer 9, the SOBP position of the proton line can be matched to the tumor P in the patient 51. The position in the depth direction (irradiation direction A). The proton beam beam passing through the precision degrader 9 is incident on a block type collimator 1 1 for rough shaping the planar shape of the proton line of -9-200836792 (the shape seen from the irradiation direction A). In addition to the multi-leaf collimator 15 described later, the shaping of the stopper type collimator 1 is performed here so that the secondary radiation caused by the stopper type collimator 1 1 is not generated in the vicinity of the patient. The proton line of the block type collimator 1 is input to, for example, a resin-made non-shaping filter, that is, a rapid injection (compensation filter) 13 for the cross-sectional shape and tissue unevenness of the maximum depth of the tumor P. Sexual corrections. The shape of the rapid injection 13 is calculated based on the tumor outline and the electron density of the surrounding tissue obtained, for example, from the X-ray CT data. By using such a rapid injection method, the three-dimensional shape of the farthest portion (maximum reaching depth portion) of the proton beam is shaped to match the shape of the maximum depth portion of the tumor P, thereby increasing the amount of line P to the tumor. Concentration. The proton beam beam passing through the rapid injection 13 is incident on a multi-leaf collimator (shape variable collimator) 15. The multi-leaf collimator 15 is composed of two shade portions 1 5 a and 15 b having a plurality of comb teeth and having a width of several mm, which are arranged in a brass shape, and are arranged so as to protrude toward the distal end of the comb teeth. Then, by the control of the irradiation control unit 17, the multi-leaf collimator 15 can pass the opening 15c through which the proton beam passes, so that the plurality of comb teeth are advanced and retracted in the longitudinal direction by the blind portions 15a and 15b. Position and shape changes. By the proton beam of the multi-leaf collimator 15 , the contour corresponding to the shape of the opening 15 c is extracted, so that the multi-leaf collimator 15 can be obtained by changing the shape of the opening 15 c. The desired planar position and planar shape of the incident proton beam. The proton beam beam having the desired planar shape obtained at the desired planar position is irradiated to the patient 51 by -10-200836792 as a therapeutic proton. Then, by changing the plane position and the planar shape of the opening 15c of the multi-leaf collimator 15 so that the position of the irradiation region is sequentially shifted in the horizontal direction (the orthogonal direction of the irradiation direction A), the irradiation is repeated. In the way, the whole of the tumor P illuminates the proton beam. Further, the one-plasma line irradiation unit 1 includes a line amount monitor 23, and is a means for monitoring the amount of irradiation line irradiated in the irradiation region. The line amount monitor 23 is provided between the precision degrader 9 and the block type collimator 1 1 to detect the amount of the line of the passing proton. The line amount monitor 23 transmits the detected line amount to the irradiation control unit 17 as the monitor signal s 1, and the irradiation control unit 17 recognizes the amount of the irradiation line irradiated in the irradiation field based on the monitor signal s1. Further, the proton beam therapy apparatus 1 is provided with an X-ray imaging apparatus (X-ray fluoroscopic image acquisition means) for acquiring an X-ray fluoroscopic image of the patient 51. This X-ray imaging apparatus includes an X-ray generator and an X-ray detector that detects X-rays transmitted through the patient 51. The X-ray generator and the X-ray detector are fixed to the rotary 'rotary holder 103, and are rotatable around the patient 51. In the present embodiment, two X-ray generators are provided, and the X-ray generating devices are disposed at positions that differ by 90 degrees. Further, an X-ray detector is disposed at a position opposite to the X-ray generator. The X-ray imaging apparatus creates an X-ray fluoroscopic image of the patient 51 based on the data detected by the X-ray detector, and detects bone and metal marks to determine the position of the patient 51. Here, the proton therapy device 100 is provided with a PET device 31 having a pair of PET cameras (detectors) 3 〇 mounted on the rotating stand 203 and set to be rotatable around the treatment table 1 〇 5 . That is, -11 - 200836792, the PET camera 30 and the proton beam irradiation unit 1 attached to the rotating stand i〇3 are set to be rotatable integrally around the X axis. The PET device 3 1 includes an image processing unit, a recording unit, a display unit, and the like, which are not shown, in addition to the PET camera 30. The image processing unit performs image processing based on the image information acquired by the PET camera 30 to generate a PET image. The recording department records _ recorded PET images and the like. The resulting PET image is displayed by the display portion. φ The PET camera 30 is disposed on both sides of the patient 51 on the treatment table 1〇5 for detecting the elimination of r rays. Specifically, the patient 51 is administered a drug (injection) of a radiopharmaceutical (e.g., 11C methionine) concentrated on the tumor P, and the PET camera 30 detects the extinct r-ray generated from the tumor P (the arrival position of the radiopharmaceutical). The PET apparatus 31 functions to function as an irradiation target position detecting means for detecting the position of the tumor P based on the result of detecting the extinction of the r-ray by the PET camera 30. • Further, the PET camera 30 can detect the extinct T-rays from the positron emission nucleus generated by the nuclear reaction of both the incident proton nucleus irradiated on the proton line of the patient 51 and the nucleus in the tumor P. Further, the 'PET device 3 1 functions as a proton line (charged particle line) reaching the position detecting means, and the proton line (charged particle line) arrival position detecting means detects the result of destroying the 7 ray according to the PET camera 30. The position at which the illuminated proton line actually reaches the body of the patient 51 is detected. That is, the ΡΈΤ device 3 i uses the mutual nuclear reaction between the incident proton nucleus of the proton line used in the treatment and the nucleus in the body of the patient, and the positron emission nucleus measurement from the body -12-200836792 is eliminated. The r-ray is used to measure the intensity distribution of each of the produced nuclear species, whereby the actual proton line arrival position in the patient 51 can be detected. As shown in Fig. 4, the PET camera 30 is movable in the direction of the central axis of rotation X (hereinafter referred to as "X-axis") of the rotary holder 1〇3, and is movable in the Y-axis direction orthogonal to the X-axis.

Then, the PET camera 30 is fixed to the Y-axis direction moving member 36, and is disposed such that the detecting faces 30a thereof face each other. The support member 33 is formed with a projecting portion 33a projecting outward in the Y-axis direction, and the projecting portion 33a is fixed to the frame i〇3a of the swivel bracket 1〇3 (refer to Fig. 2). The support member 3 3 is disposed on the back side (the right side of the drawing) of the back panel 1 0 3 b of the rotary holder 103. In the support member 33 and the X-axis direction moving member 34, a slide guide 3 for guiding the moving direction of the X-axis direction moving member 34 is formed, and the X-axis direction moving member 34 is guided via the slide guide 38. The support is movable in the X-axis direction. Then, the X-axis direction moving member 34 is driven by the cylinder 37 fixed to the support member 33, and is reciprocally movable in the X-axis direction. In the Y-axis direction extending member 35 and the Y-axis direction moving member 36, as shown in Fig. 5, a sliding guide for moving the γ-axis direction moving member 36 in the direction of the -13,360,792 direction is provided. The member 36 is supported via the slider 39 to be movable in the z-axis direction. Then, the γ-axis direction shifting member 36 is driven by the motor fixed to the γ-axis direction extending member 35, and is reciprocally movable in the x-axis direction. The motor 40 is disposed such that its output shaft 41 extends in the x-axis direction (vertical direction in Fig. 5) where the X-axis and the x-axis intersect. The output shaft is coupled to the drive shaft 43 extending in the x-axis direction via the coupling member 42. The drive shaft 43 is supported by the pair of bearings 44 so as to be rotatable in the x-axis extending member 35. A gear is provided between the pair of bearings 44 of the drive shaft 43. Further, a stopper 46 and a potentiometer 47 are provided at an end of the drive shaft 43 opposite to the coupling member 42. Further, in the z-axis direction moving member 36, the rack 48 of the gear 45 is formed in the z-axis direction. Then, the driving force is transmitted by the gear 45 and the rack 48 to rotationally drive the motor 40, and the z-axis moving member 36 is reciprocated in the z-axis direction. Thereby, the PET camera can be brought close to the patient 51. In order to configure the PET camera 30 to be close to the patient, the detection accuracy of eliminating the r-ray is improved. The PET camera 30 can be housed on the back side by the back surface l〇3b of the rotary holder 103, and is driven by the cylinder 37 at the time of measurement, and placed on both sides of the patient 51. Further, the proton therapy device 1A has a treatment table position control unit (mounting table control unit) that adjusts the position of the treatment table 105. Then, the treatment table position control unit controls the guide 40 by 41 based on the PET image acquired by the PET device 31 and the X-ray fluoroscopic image acquired by the X-ray imaging device.

The irradiation control unit 17 refers to the tumor map (target map) 19 that is stored in accordance with the three-dimensional shape of the patient P: in particular, the control ridge filter portion 7, the precision energy reducer 9, and the multi-meter 15 Actions. And, here is a quick note prepared in advance! At a predetermined position, the shape of the farthest portion of the irradiation field is shaped corresponding to the most complicated shape of the tumor. Further, the illumination control unit 17 adjusts the position of the PET device/proton line to perform proton beam adjustment. In other words, the operation of the ridge filter unit 7, the precision degrader 9, and the multi-leaf 15 is controlled in accordance with the seventh system, and the proton beam is adjusted so that the position of the patient 5 1 and the position of the tumor P are Consistent. Next, a description will be given of a proton beam irradiation method using the proton beam 1 如此 configured as described above (charged particle beam irradiation method). When the proton beam treatment apparatus 1 is not used, 'PET photography| is stored on the back side of the back panel 1 〇 3b. State. Here · About proton therapy for patients with brain tumors. First, let the patient sit on the treatment table 1 0 5 in the rotating bracket 1 〇 3 . The length of the patient 51 is along the X-axis direction. Next, it is waited for 1 administration of the patient 51 (S1), and aggregation of MC methionine (S2) to the brain tumor. The extinction r-ray of the 11 C egg _ accumulated in the brain tumor was measured by the PET camera 30 (first detection step, S3). At this time, 37, the PET camera 30 is moved in the X-axis direction, and the proton line 5: tumor is detected: one side and the leaf type is collimated 13 is set: large depth portion: detected: shot control unit: Collimator 丨 proton line treatment device 〇I 3 0 Department = an example Description: 5 1 lying in the t direction tied with i methionine, followed by the acid release of the drive cylinder on both sides of the patient 5 1 -15- 200836792 'drive The motor 40 moves the PET camera 30 in the Y-axis direction to adjust the interval between the PET cameras 30. When performing 3D image measurement ‘Make rotating bracket! 〇3 rotates to perform the measurement of eliminating r-rays. Next, based on the result of measurement by the PET camera 30, a PET image is created to detect a brain tumor position (irradiation target position detecting step, S4). Next, a fluoroscopic photograph is taken by the X-ray apparatus to create an X Ι ,, line image (X-ray fluoroscopic image acquisition step) of the patient 51, and the position of the bone and the metal φ mark is confirmed. In addition, it is also possible to change the order of photography and X-ray photography, or to perform multiple photography alternately. Further, the rotation of the rotating bracket 103 is made necessary to change the position of the X-ray generator and the X-ray detector. Next, the irradiation plan is established based on the PET image and the X-ray image (S6). Here, the illumination plan determines, for example, the absolute line amount, the line amount distribution, the position of the patient 51, and the like. Next, the patient 51 is placed at an appropriate position based on the determined irradiation plan 'the position adjustment of the treatment table 105 (the stage setting adjustment step, S7). • Next, the beam adjustment is performed in accordance with the determined irradiation plan, and the rotation of the rotary holder 103 is necessary to change the position of the proton beam irradiation unit 1, and the proton line is irradiated once to the tumor (S8). Then, the extrinsic r-ray of the positron emitting nucleus generated by the nuclear reaction between the irradiated proton line and the atomic nuclei in the patient 51 is measured by the PET camera 30'' (second detecting step, S9). At this time, the PET cameras 30 are moved in the Y-axis direction in such a manner as to approach each other, and the PET camera 30 is brought close to the patient 51 to detect the 7-rays. Further, the PET camera 30 can be rotated to perform measurement. Next, based on the result of measurement by the PET camera 30, a PET image of -16-200836792 is prepared, and the proton line arrival position in the patient 51 is detected, and the irradiation field is confirmed (the charged particle beam arrival position detecting step, S 1 0 ). Next, it is compared that the irradiated proton line actually reaches the body position of the patient 51, the irradiation target position (tumor position) of the irradiation plan, and when there is a bit shift, the beam adjustment is performed so that the proton beam is irradiated to the allowable range of the irradiation target. Inside (beam adjustment step, S 1 1 ). At the end of the beam adjustment, the proton beam (s 1 2 ) is illuminated. In addition, it is also possible to implement S 8 to S 1 1 φ again according to the proton therapy device 100. Flying 1 ^ photography is carried on the rotating support 103 ' by the PET camera 30, measuring the positron emission nucleus of the nucleus of the incident proton nucleus of the illuminated proton and the nucleus of the tumor, destroying 7 rays, therefore The actual arrival position of the illuminated sub-line can be confirmed. That is, during the treatment, the proton line can be irradiated while detecting the proton line arrival position. Further, since the PET camera 300 is rotated on the holder 103, the PET camera 30 can be rotated around the patient 51 in conjunction with the rotation of the rotary holder 103 to illuminate the proton line. Further, the degree of freedom of movement of the PET camera 30 can be increased, and the miniaturized PET camera 30 can be used for three-dimensional, and the rotary driving unit for the PET camera 30 is not required to be separately provided. When the PET camera 30 and the proton beam irradiation unit 1 rotate in synchronization, the positional relationship between the rotation of the PET camera 30 and the proton beam irradiation unit 1 is maintained, and the detection of the extinction of the r-ray is performed. Further, the PET camera 30 is movable in the X-axis direction and can be on the back side of the back panel 103b of the swivel bracket 103. By moving the camera 30 in the X-axis direction as described above, it is possible to enlarge the position of the offset position in the PET photographing frame, and to produce the quality of the shot, and to fix it, and to measure it immediately. The detection range of PET 1 3 -17-200836792 can be accommodated in the middle. Further, when the PET camera 30 is appropriately moved by the pET camera 30 without interfering with the proton beam irradiation unit 1, when the patient 51 is carried in and out of the rotary holder 103, 30 does not interfere. Further, since the PET camera 30 of the object to be irradiated can be blended, it is easy to confirm the irradiation of the desired portion, and the PET camera 30 can move in the direction in which the patient 51 is sandwiched, since the PET camera 30 can be arbitrarily changed. By bringing the PET camera 30 closer to the test in the Y-axis direction, the detection accuracy of eliminating the r-ray can be improved. And in the past, for example, in the radiotherapy of brain tumors, the positioning of the patient is achieved by the degree of accuracy, and the patient is placed in a large burden in order to use the fixture. In the proton beam irradiation sub-ray irradiation method of the present invention, in the irradiation room, the PET camera 30 can be swollen in a state of the patient 51, and the tumor position and the actually irradiated proton line can be corrected to be offset. Position patient 51 in place. Thereby, the patient can be positioned with accuracy, and the burden on the patient can be simplified. Next, a proton therapy device according to an embodiment will be described with reference to Figs. 7 and 8. The second virtual line therapy device and the proton therapy device of the first embodiment are in the same manner as the PET camera 60 of the second embodiment, and the detection surface 60 & of the PET camera 60. Move the way, rotate. In addition, the camera moves in size and moves. The distance to the (Y-axis) is due to the fact that the f 5 1 method is required to be fixed with a high-precision head and the position of the patient is located at the position of the treatment tumor. The phase of the form is set to be different from the Y-axis shape. -18-200836792 The PET camera support portion 61 supporting the PET camera 60 is provided with a camera fixing portion 62 for fixing the PET camera 60 to the γ-axis. The end portion 3 6 a of the inner side of the moving member 36. The camera fixing portion 62 is mounted with a motor 63 for rotationally driving the PET camera 60. The output shaft 64 of the motor is disposed along the Y-axis direction. Then, the shaft of the motor 63 is disposed. 64 is connected to the PET camera 60 and rotatable around the Y-axis. The measurement surface 60a of the PET camera 60 is curved in an arc shape, and a detection surface 60a is disposed to face each other. The PET camera 60 is in the time of receiving and facing the X-axis. When the direction is moved, the long axis is arranged along the X-axis (state shown in Fig. 7). When measuring 7 rays, the PET camera is arranged such that the central axis of the arc is parallel to the X-axis direction. Can be taken in parallel with the X-axis direction The machine 60 is rotated and measured from various angles. In this configuration, the same effect as the proton therapy of the first embodiment can be obtained, and since the PET camera 60 can be rotated around the crucible, the PET is further improved. The degree of freedom of movement of the camera 60 can be measured by measuring the irradiation position in various directions, and the measurement accuracy is improved. The present invention is not limited to the first embodiment and the second embodiment (hereinafter referred to as "the above embodiment"). In the embodiment, the PET camera is set to be rotatable around the X-axis, but may be configured not to rotate around the shaft, or may be configured to rotate in other directions. The PET camera may be configured to move in a direction close to each other, but may be The PET camera does not move in the direction of approaching each other. Moreover, although the camera has 63 out of the right direction, 60 is in the shape of the circumference. X j is -19-200836792. The cylinder and motor are used to move the PET camera, but it can also be The PET camera is moved by using other driving devices such as a hydraulic cylinder or a linear motor. Moreover, the PET camera is oriented in the X-axis direction. The movement in the γ-axis direction may not be linear, or may be a curved or arc-shaped movement. Further, in the above embodiment, the PET camera is attached to the rotary holder and can be integrally formed with the proton beam irradiation unit on the X-axis. Rotating around, but the PET camera may not rotate integrally with the rotating bracket and the proton beam irradiation unit. For example, a driving device for rotationally driving the PET camera is additionally provided, so that the PET camera follows the rotation of the rotating bracket and the proton beam irradiation portion. Alternatively, the PET camera may be rotated regardless of the rotation of the rotating holder and the proton beam irradiation unit. Further, in the above embodiment, the X-ray apparatus is provided and X-ray imaging is performed, but X-ray imaging may be omitted. Further, in the above embodiment, the radioactive agent is methionine, but other radioactive agents may be used in combination with the irradiation target. Further, in the above embodiment, the PET inspection using the radioactive agent is performed in the irradiation chamber, but the irradiation of the object to be irradiated may be performed using the material carried out in another place.
