A system for modulating a fan beam for radiation treatment employs shutters that may move rapidly into and out of different beamlets of a fan beam, the shutters having a systematic weighting so that a limited number of shutters may obtain a far greater number of regularly spaced energy reductions.

Heavy ion radiation therapy system with stair-step modulation

A modulator for radiation therapy provides modulation of an area beam to decrease treatment time. Separate channels passing modulated 'beamlets' are possible by spacing the channels such that spreading of the beams and multiple angles of treatment eliminate cold spots. The space between the channels allows well-defined channel walls and space for modulator mechanisms.

Areal modulator for intensity modulated radiation therapy

A phantom for heavy ion radiation therapy provides characterization of an ion beam that may enter but not exit from the phantom. The phantom may include multiple materials and multiple spatially dispersed ion detectors to obtain signals that may be fit to known beam curves to accurately characterize the location and other parameters of Bragg peak of a given ion beam within a patient.

Phantom for ion range detection

A composition comprises anhydrous alumino-silicate, diatomaceous earth, and/or other natural pozzolans, white clinker, and white gypsum interground together and in a ratio by weight of 5-20% anhydrous alumino-silicate, diatomaceous earth, and/or other natural pozzolans, 3-7% gypsum, and 73-92% white clinker.

Interground white blended cement

A process of manufacturing blended white cement comprises the following steps: (a) providing anhydrous alumino-silicate, diatomaceous earth, and/or other natural pozzolans; (b) providing white clinker; (c) providing gypsum; and (d) combining and grinding the anhydrous alumino-silicate; the white clinker, and the gypsum together to form the blended white cement.
