Neutron beam generation system for neutron capture therapy

Abstract

Disclosed is a neutron beam generation system for neutron capture therapy. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, provided is a neutron beam generation system comprising: an injector which generates proton beams, an RF linear accelerator connected to the injector to accelerate the proton beams, a beamline which transmits the proton beams accelerated by the RF linear accelerator, a target which generates fast neutrons by colliding with the proton beams transmitted by the beamline, and a beam shaping assembly provided on one side of the beamline and configured to decelerate the fast neutrons into epithermal neutrons.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
