Abstract
A radiotherapy device includes an electron source, a first beam corrector, a drift tube, a target with target material that when impacted by an electron beam generates Bremsstrahlung x-ray photons, and a radiosurgical needle. The radiosurgical needle has an elongated radiopaque needle body with a lumen and a pointed tip for piercing a tissue of a patient. The target is positioned within the lumen of the radiosurgical needle. A first beam steering device steers a focused electron beam within the micro drift tube to the target. A radiotherapy system and a method for conducting radiotherapy are also disclosed.
