Abstract
AbstractBecause of its excellent dose distribution, proton therapy is becoming increasingly popular in the medical application of cancer treatment. A synchrotron-based proton therapy facility was designed and constructed in Shanghai. The synchrotron, beam delivery system, and other technical systems were commissioned and reached their expected performances. After a clinical trial of 47 patients was finished, the proton therapy facility obtained a registration certificate from the National Medical Products Administration. The characteristics of the accelerator and treatment systems are described in this article.
