Title:
RADIATION DETECTION SYSTEM AND RADIATION DETECTION METHOD FOR NEUTRON CAPTURE THERAPY SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2021006266
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide a radiation detection system for improving the accuracy of a neutron beam irradiation dose for a neutron capture therapy system.SOLUTION: The neutron capture therapy system includes a charged particle beam P, a charged particle beam inlet for passing the charged particle beam P, a neutron generating unit T for generating a neutron beam N by means of a nuclear reaction with the charged particle beam P, a beam shaping assembly 30 for adjusting flux and quality of the neutron beam generated by the neutron generating unit T, and a beam outlet 40 adjoining to the beam shaping assembly 30. The neutron generating unit T is accommodated in the beam shaping assembly 30, the radiation detection system includes a radiation detection device 60 arranged within the beam shaping assembly 30 or outside the beam shaping assembly 30, and the radiation detection device 60 is used for real-time detection of the overflowing neutron beam N by the neutron generating unit T after the nuclear reaction of the charged particle beam P with the neutron generating unit T.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
