Abstract
The invention comprises a charged particle cancer therapy system used to seal a periphery of a tumor, such as through use of a proton or carbon ion beam searing the outer edges of the tumor, which prevents/hinders nutrient delivery to the tumor resultant in stunted growth of the tumor, halted growth of the tumor, and/or starvation/necrosis of the tumor. Optionally, a tumor sealing layer is formed using multiple passes, of a treatment beam of the charged particle cancer therapy system, across a tumor/healthy tissue boundary layer or voxel.
