与其他常规类型的辐射相比,质量范围高达氖的高能离子在癌症治疗中可能具有重要的优势。本综述将首先考虑几种类型的辐射(光子、电子、质子和离子)的放射生物学特性,指出离子与其他类型相比的相关特性。然后将确定癌症治疗所需的离子束参数,然后审查质子和离子治疗和临床试验的状况,并说明正在运行和计划中的设施。最后,将根据现有经验和未来预期的性能,提出这种设施的可能设计。
Energetic ions in the mass range up to neon may have important advantages in cancer treatment when compared to other, conventional types of radiation. This review will first consider radiobiological properties of several types of radiation (photons, electrons, protons and ions), pointing out to the relevant characteristics of ions compared to other types. Parameters of ion beams as required for cancer treatment will then be defined, followed by the review of the status of proton and ion therapy and clinical trials, and a description of operating and planned facilities. Finally, on the basis of existing experience and desired future performance, a possible design of such a facility will be suggested.
