SHI succeeds in developing a superconducting cyclotron for prot필리핀 카지노herapy -Toward widespread use of prot필리핀 카지노herapy

October 26, 2021

Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd. (President: Shinji Shimomura, hereinafter referred to as "SHI") has conducted proton beam accelerati필리핀 카지노ests on its in-house developed superconducting cyclotron for the next-generation prot필리핀 카지노herapy system under development and confirmed the generation of a high-intens,000 nA. The successful development of the superconducting cyclotron is a significant step toward realizing the next-generation prot필리핀 카지노herapy system being developed by SHI.
In recent years, scanning irradiation has been used in prot필리핀 카지노herapy. In scanning irradiation, thin proton beams are scanned according to the tumor's shape, thereby minimizing damage to normal tissues and organs around the tumor. To accurately treat tumors in the lungs and livers, which move with respiration, 사용 검색 irradiation, it is necessary to irradiate the tumor in a short time while suppressing the movement caused by respiration. Scanning the proton beam at high intensity and ultra-high speed is essential to achieve such a short irradiati필리핀 카지노ime.
This time, SHI has succeeded in developing a superconducting cyclotron capable of generating a high-intensity proton beam of 1000 nA, the world's highest level for a prot필리핀 카지노herapy system. Conventionally, irradiating a tumor with a proton beam requires a long time. However, the newly developed superconducting cyclotron can increase the intensity of the proton beam more than three times and shorten the irradiati필리핀 카지노ime to less than one-third. In addition, the use of superconducting magnets reduces the power consumption by 40%, making it possible to operate the prot필리핀 카지노herapy system at lower cost.

In the future, SHI will conduct beam tests in combination with the ultra high-speed scanning technology under development. The company will continue to accelerate product development in order to bring prot필리핀 카지노herapy, a less invasive cancer treatment, to as many patients as possible.
