A particle accelerator can include a first waveguide portion and a second waveguide portion. The first waveguide portion can include a first plurality of cell portions and a first iris portion that is disposed between two of the first plurality of cell portions. The first iris portion can include a first portion of an aperture such that the aperture is configured to be disposed about a beam axis. The first waveguide portion can further include a first bonding surface. The second waveguide portion can include a second plurality of cell portions and a second iris portion that is disposed between two of the second plurality of cell portions. The second iris portion can include a second portion of the aperture. The second waveguide portion can include a second bonding surface.

Split structure particle accelerators

An X-ray generation system is configured to generate an X-ray beam configured to be delivered to a patient undergoing radiation therapy. The X-ray generation system includes a linear accelerator system configured to generate an electron beam configured to impinge a target configured to respond to the incident electron beam by emitting an X-ray beam configured to deliver an X-ray dose rate to the patient in a range of 40 Gy/s to 1000 Gy/s within a treatment delivery window.

Linear accelerator for generating high X-ray doses

A linear accelerator head for use in a medical radiation therapy system can include a housing, an electron generator configured to emit electrons along a beam path, and a microwave generation assembly. The linear accelerator head may include a waveguide that is configured to contain a standing or travelling microwave. The waveguide can include a plurality of cells that are disposed adjacent one another, wherein each of the plurality of cells may define an aperture configured to receive electrons therethrough. The linear accelerator head can further include a converter and a primary collimator.

A system for coordinating radiation therapy and imaging processes includes a radiation therapy system an radiation source mounted on a robotically-controlled system to move the radiation source about a subject to direct radiation to a target area in the subject according to a treatment plan. The system also includes an imaging system configured to acquire imaging data from a subject. The imaging system and the radiation therapy system are independently movable. The system also includes a coordination system configured to coordinate operation of the imaging system to acquire the imaging data from the subject during movement of the radiation source about the subject according to the treatment plan to avoid collisions of the radiation therapy system with the imaging system.

Systems and methods for image-guided radiotherapy using dual robot architecture

A radiotherapy system and method for delivering radiotherapy are provided. In some aspects, the radiotherapy system includes beam director comprising a radiation source configured to generate radiation for irradiating a patient, the beam director having at least four degrees of freedom of movement. The radiotherapy system also includes a controller configured to operate the beam director to irradiate the patient in accordance with a radiation treatment plan, wherein the radiation treatment plan is generated based on a solution space determined by the at least four degrees of freedom of movement of the beam director.

Modified split structure particle accelerators

The present disclosure relates generally to methods and apparatus for cargo inspection and, more particularly, to X-ray based inspection systems providing radiographic imaging and material discrimination with adaptive control of X-ray source dependent upon characteristics of the cargo under inspection. X-rays are generated utilizing a dual energy interlaced betatron by generation of X-ray pulses with lower- and higher-energies during the same betatron acceleration cycle.

Adaptive cargo inspection based on multi-energy betatron

An X-ray based inspection systems providing radiographic imaging for cargo inspection and material discrimination with adaptive control dependent upon characteristics of the cargo under inspection. A packet of X-ray pulses with controllable packet duration is produced that allows multi-energy material discrimination in a single scan line and real-time adjustment of packet duration to adapt to cargo attenuation. In addition, adaptive dynamic adjustment of the operational characteristic of the detector channels increases the effective dynamic range and as a result increases the penetration and range of thicknesses where material discrimination is possible. The material discrimination technique is applied within a single packet of short pulses of several hundred nanoseconds. Feedback from the detection system is used to control the packet duration of each packet of X-ray pulses in order to adapt scan parameters to the object that is being imaged.
