Design of a superconducting rotating gantry for heavy-ion therapy
A superconducting rotating gantry for heavy-ion therapy is being designed. This isocentric rotating gantry can transport heavy ions with the maximum energy of 430 MeV/u to an isocenter with irradiation angles of over 0–360 degrees, and is further capable of performing three-dimensional raster-scann...
