Radiation therapy techniques using targeted wave superposition, magnetic field direction and real-time sensory feedback

A method for treating an electromagnetic radiation-based or other wave phenomenon-based treatment target, comprising the following steps:

• employing location information concerning a group of material to define the location of a treatment target;
• aiming multiple beams of radiation or paths or instances of wave phenomenon at said treatment target from the same side of said treatment target, which beams of radiation or paths or instances of wave phenomenon are in the same polarization, phase, and/or frequency when they converge, such that their paths will converge at, near and/or before at least one leading structure of said treatment target;
• and
• inserting a lens or other radiation path diversion device configured to have its location and orientation determined by a beacon, tag, or reflective characteristic or structural element, which device focuses diffuse radiation within material collateral to a treatment target onto the treatment target and/or around at least one collateral matter structure(s).

A method for treating a radiation-based treatment target, comprising the following steps:

• employing location information concerning a group of material to define the location of a treatment target;
• aiming beams of particle-based radiation at said treatment target from the same side of said treatment target, which beams of radiation will, when employing additional steps set forth below, intersect at least one leading structure of said treatment target;
• using a locally-actuated, regionally changing magnetic field to alter the path of a particle-based radiation beam, such that it circumvents at least one structure and enters the treatment target;
• and
• using a locally-actuated, regionally changing magnetic field to alter the path of a particle-based radiation beam such that it turns at least once within the treatment target.
