在用重离子治疗癌症时，确认病人体内的离子范围是很重要的。为此，正电子发射束提供了距离验证的可能性。为了利用正电子发射束，我们构建了二次束程及其辐照系统。本文介绍了所构建的系统，并给出了一些梁实验结果。(C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.版权所有
In cancer treatment with heavy ions, verification of the ion range in the patient's body is important. For this purpose, a positron emitter beam provides the possibility of range verification. To use the positron emitter beam, we have constructed a secondary beam course and its irradiation system. In this paper the constructed system is presented together with some results of beam experiments. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
