Description

如图1-2所示,本申请实施例提供了一种放疗系统,该放疗系统包括:机架100、射源装置200以及影像设备300;射源装置200设置于机架100上;射源装置200用于对患者进行射线照射治疗,射源装置200通过翻转在不同工作位之间进行切换,不同的工作位对应多种治疗模式。示例的,可以是实现两种模式,对患者进行不同治疗模式下的治疗,示例的,翻转前和翻转后都可以对患者头部进行治疗;或,翻转前和翻转后都可以对患者体部进行治疗。本申请实施例以射源装置通过翻转形成第一治疗模式和第二治疗模式为例进行示例说明,第一治疗模式为头部治疗模式,第二治疗模式为体部治疗模式。影像设备300用于对患者身体的部分进行成像。
本发明实施例提供的一种放疗系统,机架100用于承载射源装置200,其可以是框型机架、半圆形机架等,本申请对于机架100的形状和结构不做限定,说明书及附图以框型机架为例进行示例说明。示例地,放疗系统的机架100为框形机架,该框形机架至少包括四根立柱以及两根横梁。四根立柱的一端固定于地面或者固定于放疗系统的基座,四根立柱所在位置构成一长方形,构成长方形短边的两根立柱顶端设置有横梁。

伽玛刀是立体定向放射外科的主要治疗手段,是根据立体定向原理,将体内的病变组织确定为靶点,使用钴60作为放射源,产生伽玛射线,利用伽玛射线进行一次性的大剂量聚焦照射,使病变组织的细胞坏死,从而达到治疗的目的。
伽玛刀分为体部伽玛刀以及头部伽玛刀,顾名思义体部伽玛刀为针对患者体部病灶的伽玛刀设备;头部伽玛刀为针对患者头部病灶的伽玛刀设备。也就是目前的伽玛刀设备,只能单一的针对头部或体部。为了使一台伽玛刀设备能 够同时满足头部和体部的治疗需求,本申请实施例提供了一种放疗系统。该放疗系统既能够满足头部的治疗需求,还能够满足体部的治疗需求。
