1 Recent developments in cyclotrons for proton therapy at IBA Yves Jongen. Founder & CRO IBA sa We Protect, Enhance and Save Lives.
2 A typical PT center millions for equipment millions for the center m 35 m 2
3 The accelerator is a very small part of a PT system A Proton therapy system is much more than an accelerator It is most often a complex, multi-room system, filling a Hospital building. The treatment rooms are larger than the cyclotron vault The total investment is around 100 M, of which 45 M for the equipment The cyclotron represents only 7 M of this! The investment to develop the cyclotron was less than 4 M, out of more than 60 M spent on developing IBA PT system 3

7 Cyclotrons for Proton therapy? In 1991, when IBA entered in PT, the consensus was that the best accelerator for PT was a synchrotron IBA introduced a very effective cyclotron design, and today the majority of PT centers use the cyclotron technology (not only IBA but Varian, Still Rivers) Over these 15 years, users came to appreciate the advantages of cyclotrons: Simplicity Reliability Lower cost and size But, most importantly, the ability to modulate rapidly and accurately the proton beam current 7
8 Proton beam current regulation signal (V) t (sec) 8
9 Change of energy? Cyclotrons are simpler at fixed energy Energy change by graphite/beryllium degrader at waist after cyclotron exit, followed by divergence slits and energy analyzer This very effectively decouples the accelerator from the patient Unlike the synchrotron, the emittance is identical in X and Y. This makes gantry optics much easier in scanning mode Yes, neutrons are produced, but ESS is well shielded and the average beam current in PT is low > limited activation How fast? 5 mm step in energy in 100 msec at PSI (vs. 2 sec for IBA or 4 sec. for a synchrotron). 9

27 RF cavity redesign Problem: Due to the elliptical pole shape, the counter-dee gap decreases with radius. Consequence: Beam losses on counter-dees at large radius. Solution: Maximize the counter-dee gap. Method: Redesign the RF cavities to increase the counter-dee gap from 10mm to 12mm. 27
28 RF cavity redesign New cavity design 28
29 RF cavity redesign New cavity design Redesigned area 29
30 RF cavity redesign New cavity design 12mm 230MeV orbit 30
31 RF cavity tuning redesign Problem: The present cavity tuning by a variable capacitor in the median plane needs periodic replacement. It is difficult to share the larger RF current drawn by this capacitor equally in the upper and lower cavity. Consequence: Capacitor failures: loss of reliability Lack of up-down symmetry: leaks of RF in the cyclotron through the accelerating gaps Solution: Tune the cavities with inductive tuners in the valleys sliding on RF contacts 31
32 New cavity tuner design 32
33 Electrostatic deflector optimization Problem: The old septum intercepted a significant amount of beam. Consequence: Activation, limited extraction efficiency Solution: Reduce septum beam apparent thickness. Method: Analytical study and beam tracking. Then build it and try it! 33

39 Proton beam current regulation optimization Present situation The proton beam current is slaved to an external time function by measuring the extracted beam with an ion chamber, doing a digital regulation by varying the arc current in the ion source. The current loop regulates the beam current with an accuracy better than 2%, up to a bandwidth of 2.5 KHz Problem: We have a dark current. Even when the arc is turned off, a proton beam current of 30 to 100 picoampere is extracted from the cyclotron 39
40 Proton beam current regulation optimization Consequence: The dark current results in small inaccuracies in beam delivery. In pencil beam scanning, it can result in small amounts of beam being delivered outside the treatment field Solution: Use a reduction of the dee voltage to suppress the proton beam when it is not needed. Possibly, use the dee voltage variation exclusively to regulate the beam current 40
