| Popis: | To make the best use of the characteristics of a carbon-ion beam and provide flexible dose delivery, three-dimensional (3D) pencil-beam scanning is an ideal irradiation technique. To suppress beam spread due to multiple scattering and nuclear reactions, we then developed a full energy scanning method. In some case such as eye treatment, the irradiation fields are very small and short range. Thus, we prepared a minimum low energy carbon-ion beam corresponding to the water-equivalent residual ranges less than 2 mm. In our presentation, we introduce the experimental verification for low energy carbon-ion beam. 13th European Conference on Accelerators in Applied Research and Technology (ECAART13) |
