Abstract

In 1991 INFN was first involved in R&D work in the field of hadrontherapy. In 1992 the TERA Foundation was created with the purpose of forming and employing people fully devoted to the design, promotion and construction of hadrontherapy centres in Italy and in Europe. This contribution reviews the present status of therapy with ion beams and describes the main TERA project CNAO (Centro Nazionale di Adroterapia Oncologica) based on the optimised medical synchrotron designed in the framework of the "Proton Ion Medical Machine Study" (PIMMS) carried out at CERN from 1996 to 1999 with CERN, the Med-AUSTRO project, GSI, Oncology 2000 (Prague) and TERA as partners.

摘要

1991年，意大利国家核物理研究所首次参与了强子治疗领域的研发工作。1992年，成立了TERA基金会，旨在组建并雇佣全身心投入到意大利和欧洲强子治疗中心设计、推广及建设工作的人员。本论文综述了离子束治疗的现状，并介绍了主要的TERA项目——国家肿瘤强子治疗中心（CNAO），该项目基于在1996年至1999年于欧洲核子研究组织（CERN）开展的“质子离子医疗机器研究”（PIMMS）框架内设计的优化医用同步加速器，CERN、Med - AUSTRO项目、德国重离子研究中心（GSI）、肿瘤学2000（布拉格）及TERA均为合作伙伴。
