Abstract: A charged-particle beam therapy apparatus includes: an accelerator configured to accelerate a charged particle and emit a charged-particle beam; an irradiation unit configured to irradiate an irradiated body with the charged-particle beam using a scanning method; and a control unit. The control unit stores a control pattern of the apparatus during one treatment. An irradiation interruption time for which the irradiation of the irradiated body with the charged-particle beam by the irradiation unit is interrupted and an irradiation time for which the irradiation unit irradiates the irradiated body with the charged-particle beam are set in the control pattern. The sum of the irradiation interruption times during one treatment is set to be shorter than the sum of the irradiation times during one treatment.

Abstract: A charged particle beam irradiation apparatus includes: a scanning electromagnet that scans a charged particle beam; and a degrader that is provided on a downstream side of the scanning electromagnet in a scanning direction of the charged particle beam and adjusts a range of the charged particle beam by reducing energy of the charged particle beam. The degrader is configured to be closer to an upstream side in the scanning direction of the charged particle beam, outward in the scanning direction.

Abstract: There is provided a charged particle beam treatment planning device that creates a treatment plan and is connected to a charged particle beam irradiation apparatus that includes a scanning electromagnet, which scans a charged particle beam, and a degrader, which adjusts a range of the charged particle beam by reducing the energy of the charged particle beam, and irradiates an irradiation object with the charged particle beam. The charged particle beam treatment planning device includes a control unit that adjusts the dose of the charged particle beam, which is irradiated to a predetermined position of the irradiation object, on the basis of a passing distance of the charged particle beam within the degrader calculated using a deflection angle of the charged particle beam.

Abstract: The present invention provides a charged particle beam irradiating apparatus capable of simply preventing unevenness or reduction in a peripheral portion of the dose distribution of a charged particle beam. A charged particle beam irradiating apparatus includes scanning electromagnets that scan a charged particle beam and a control device that controls the operations of the scanning electromagnets. In the charged particle beam irradiating apparatus, the control unit changes a scanning speed when the charged particle beam is irradiated along an irradiation line such that a peripheral portion of the dose distribution of the charged particle beam is corrected.
