Abstract

A system for particle beam therapy has an adjustable gantry for beam delivery to a patient site. The gantry has a beam coupling section, a first beam bending section with beam deflection and/or focusing magnets. A beam transport section receiving the particle beam from the first beam bending section and guiding the particle beam to a second beam bending section. The beam exits at a window of a beam nozzle. A patient table/chair is rotatable in the horizontal plane or in a plane being parallel to the horizontal plane and optionally being adjustable vertically. The gantry is supported by a tilting mechanism allowing the gantry to be tilted vertically by an angle Φε[−90°; +90°]. A rotation mechanism is disposed in a way that the second beam bending section and the beam nozzle are rotatable by an angle Φε[−180°; +180°] around a direction given by the angle Φ
