摘要： A therapeutic device (110) and a method for treating a predefined body part (112) of a patient with rays (116) are disclosed. The therapeutic device (110) has at least one ray source (118) for generating the rays (116). The therapeutic device (110) further has at least one collimator (120) for collimating and shaping the rays (116). The therapeutic device (110) further has at least one ray positioning system (122) for adjusting the position and direction of irradiating the rays (116) onto the patient. The therapeutic device (110) further has at least one patient positioning system (124) for positioning and orienting the patient. The therapeutic device (110) further comprises a control device (126). The control device (126) controls at least the collimator (120), the ray positioning system (122) and the patient positioning system (124). The control device (126) is a real-time system (128).

摘要： A leaf module for a multi-leaf collimator comprises a leaf unit and a leaf drive unit. The leaf unit comprises a leaf for shielding beams from a selected area. The leaf unit is mounted displaceably in an adjusting direction with relation to the leaf drive unit. The leaf drive unit is designed to displace the leaf unit linearly in the adjusting direction. The leaf drive unit comprises at least one drive mechanism which operates based on piezoelectric actuation, being designed such that the leaf drive unit thoroughly encloses the leaf unit within a plane being oriented substantially perpendicularly related to the adjusting direction. The multi-leaf collimator can comprise a plurality of leaf modules while being shaped as compact as possible. Both precise and stable adjustability of the leaf unit is achieved with the leaf module.

摘要： A multi-leaf collimator for radiation therapy in which the position of the leaves are determined by measuring a magnetic field allows to determine the leaf position with enhanced precision, and is at the same time robust to perturbations or disturbances. The magnetic sensor may comprise a magnetic encoder that varies in a predefined pattern along a lengthwise direction of the magnetic element, in particular according to a step function.
