金刚石探测器测量质子束流场分布

Measurement of Proton Beam Distribution by Diamond Detector

  • 摘要: 质子治疗(proton beam therapy, PBT)因其独特的布拉格峰能够达到精准放疗的效果。在质子治疗过程中,将峰准确定位到肿瘤区域,可以给予肿瘤较大剂量照射的同时,降低对正常组织和器官的伤害,减少副作用的发生。因此在质子治疗中对质子束的布拉格峰进行准确定位至关重要。本研究利用回旋加速器产生质子束流,通过金刚石探测器对质子束辐射特性进行测试,测量质子束束斑分布及布拉格峰位,得到质子束流的布拉格峰位置为(0,35 mm),为质子治疗的准确性提供了保障。

     

    Abstract: Proton beam therapy (PBT) can achieve the effect of precision radiotherapy due to its unique Bragg peak. In the process of proton therapy, the peak can be accurately located to the tumor area, which can give the tumor a larger dose of irradiation, reduce the damage to normal tissues and organs, and reduce the occurrence of side effects. Therefore, it is very important to locate the Bragg peak of proton beam in real time in proton therapy. In this paper, a cyclotron is used to generate proton beam, and a diamond detector is used to test the radiation characteristics of proton beam, and the Bragg peak and the beam spot center are measured (0, 35 mm). Thus, accurate Bragg peak value of proton beam was obtained, which guaranteed the accuracy of proton therapy.
