  • Publication number: 20230372740
    Abstract: A neutron-capture therapy system includes a charged particle beam generation unit, a beam transmission unit and a neutron beam generation unit. The charged particle beam generation unit includes an ion source and an accelerator. The accelerator accelerates charged particles generated by the ion source, so as to obtain a charged particle beam of the required energy. The neutron beam generation unit includes a target, a beam shaping body and a collimator. The charged particle beam irradiates onto the target through the beam transmission unit to generate neutrons, which sequentially pass through the beam shaping body and the collimator to form a neutron beam for therapy. The neutron-capture therapy system is accommodated in a concrete building including an irradiation room, an accelerator chamber and a beam transmission chamber. The neutron beam generation unit is at least partially accommodated in a partition wall of the irradiation chamber and the beam transmission chamber.
