Fig. 1 is a kind of neutron capture therapy system for being applicable to different targets that the utility model embodiment one provides, It specifically includes:

Proton beam 1；

Neutron generating unit, including dismountable target 5, the bombardment of proton beam 1 generate neutron beam on target 5；

Beam-shaping body, for being adjusted neutron beam to meet treatment standard, including sequentially connected slow body 6, Beam filtering body collimates body 9, and beam outlet 10 is provided on the collimation body 9, and slow body outer 6 is surrounded by reflector 3.

Specifically, target 5 is lithium target or beryllium target in the present embodiment, proton beam energies and beam intensity are a fixed value, slowly The length and width for changing body 6, reflector 3, collimation body 9 and beam filtering body is a fixed value.

The neutron capture therapy system provided in the present embodiment is selected by the way that the beam-shaping body of suitable construction has been determined The proton beam energies of OK range allow this neutron capture therapy system to be suitable for lithium target and beryllium target simultaneously, i.e., when by target When material is changed to lithium target or beryllium target, proton energy and beam-shaping body structure all do not need to be changed, and can ensure to project Neutron beam remain to meet treatment standard, meet irradiation and require, effectively to be treated to patient.

Since the neutron beam energy range generated after proton bombardment target is wider, including fast neutron, thermal neutron, epithermal neutron Deng neutron is divided according to different energy areas, wherein hanker subzone in 0.5eV hereinafter, epithermal neutron energy area is 0.5eV- 10keV, fast-neutron range is greater than 10keV, and ideal neutron energy range corresponds to epithermal neutron in radiation therapy process, uses Epithermal neutron is irradiated, and for slowing down at thermal neutron, thermal neutron and boron element carry out radiation capture reaction to epithermal neutron in vivo, because This is needed incident neutron beam before irradiation treatment by becoming the epithermal neutron of certain energy range after the shaping of beam-shaping body, To irradiate tumor tissues.The final purpose of beam-shaping body design, is to allow the neutron beam of injection to can satisfy irradiation and want It asks, and has good therapeutic effect.

It include IAEA standard for evaluating injection neutron beam whether to meet the parameter that irradiation requires, IAEA standard refers to the world The neutron beam that International Atomic Energy Agency projects for beam-shaping body gives five judgment criteria, only the parameter symbol of injection neutron beam The beam-shaping body of IAEA standard is closed, qualified can enter clinic, design parameter is as shown in table 1:

Table 1

Parameter	Unit	IAEA recommends

Target and corresponding proton energy for neutron capture therapy system, currently, the target used is mainly lithium target With beryllium target, main proton energy range is 2.5MeV~30MeV.Existing each BNCT research structure is in design beam-shaping It when body, is designed just for a certain target, does not have also and do not changing proton energy or do not changing beam-shaping concrete conditions in the establishment of a specific crime The relevant report of the neutron capture therapy system of lithium target and beryllium target can be applicable in simultaneously down.

Required in neutron capture therapy system target have generation neutron yield is high, energy range is close to epithermal neutron The features such as (0.5eV -10keV), easy slowing down, at the same require target to be easily worked, radiate it is simple etc..Using beryllium target, advantage is Fusing point is high, and the fusing point of beryllium is 1287 DEG C, and perfect heat-dissipating, thermal conductivity is 201W/ (mK), therefore target life is long, and does not need Complicated cooling system is configured, the yield of neutron is higher, and same proton number can produce more neutron, so proton Magnitude of current needs are lower, can produce the number of neutrons for meeting Treatment need the disadvantage is that needing higher proton energy, generally Proton energy > 8MeV is selected, and the neutron energy generated is high, more slow body is needed to can be only achieved in superthermal needed for treatment Subrange；Using lithium target, its advantage is that required proton energy is lower can to generate the number of neutrons for meeting Treatment need, one As select proton energy < 4MeV, the neutron energy of generation is low, so it is super needed for treatment to need less slow body just to can reach Hanker subrange, but the disadvantage is that fusing point is low, the fusing point of lithium is 181 DEG C, and target is easily damaged, and needs to be replaced frequently target, is radiated Performance is poor, and thermal conductivity is 71W/ (mK), needs more complicated cooling system to radiate to guarantee lithium target normal work, neutron Yield it is lower, the neutron that same proton number generates is less, thus the magnitude of current of proton need it is higher.

Although lithium target and beryllium target have certain application and research in existing neutron capture therapy system, due to The property of lithium target and beryllium target is entirely different, all carries out respectively to their application and research at present, in general, using lithium target When, low proton energy is selected, when using beryllium target, selects high proton energy, for example, the target that Fukushima east southeast north hospital uses For beryllium target, proton energy 30MeV；The target that Nagoya University uses is lithium target, proton energy 2.8MeV.I.e. when selection Target material is different, and selectable proton energy range is also entirely different.As shown in table 2, be at present in the world it is each based on plus Target used in the BNCT research institution of fast device and its current state of development.

And the neutron energy spectrum of different-energy range can be generated on the proton beam radiation to target of different-energy, same energy Also the neutron energy spectrum of different-energy range, and the neutron institute of different power spectrums can be generated on proton beam radiation to the target of different materials The beam-shaping body needed is not also identical, i.e., specific beam-shaping body can only carry out effective for the neutron energy spectrum of particular range Shaping, when replace different materials target when, corresponding neutron energy spectrum can also change accordingly, need replacing at this time Corresponding beam-shaping body or the proton energy of replacement irradiation, otherwise will appear the neutron beam obtained after beam-shaping body It will be unable to meet the case where irradiation requires, to cannot effectively treat patient, in some instances it may even be possible to since harm ray can not It removes and causes serious injury to patient.

The neutron capture therapy system that the inventor of the utility model designs Japan Nagoya university, is not changing other Under the premise of structure, beryllium target is changed to by lithium target, epithermal neutron yield is unable to reach irradiation standard；NT company, the U.S. is designed Neutron capture therapy system beryllium target is changed to by lithium target under the premise of not changing other structures, epithermal neutron yield without Method reaches irradiation standard, therefore further demonstrates and can also generate on the proton beam radiation to the target of different materials of same energy The neutron energy spectrum of different-energy range, specific beam-shaping body can only carry out effective whole for the neutron energy spectrum of particular range Shape, design parameter are as shown in table 3:
