A device for concentrating ionizing radiation fluence is disclosed having a coupling structure linking the external radiotherapy device with linear accelerator to an external structure, whose central axis is hollow with an input window through which electrons enter attaching to the rotation device; a rotation system linking the coupling structure with a coupling flange rotating an inner structure; a deflection system in the inner structure, wherein the deflection system has first and second magnetic deflection devices; a system for controlling the focal point, which is in the electron deflection system, having an electronic control system controlling a set of motors that produce coordinated movements of the second magnetic deflection device, a correction element and a collimator, which change the position of the focal point; and at least two laser diodes on the edge of the collimator pointing towards the focal point determining the position of the electron beam generated.
An ionizing radiation fluence concentrator device of variable focus adaptative to a high-energy electron source of an external radiotherapy device with linear accelerator, the device comprising:
