  • Energy modulation of a cyclotron beam
    Patent number: 10609806
    Abstract: In various embodiments, a radiation therapy system can include a cyclotron that outputs a charged particle beam. In addition, the radiation therapy system can include an apparatus to receive the charged particle beam from the cyclotron. The apparatus decelerates or further accelerates the charged particle beam to produce a reduced or increased energy charged particle beam. The apparatus can include a radio frequency structure.
