强子疗法的科技发展
Scientific and Technological Development of Hadrontherapy
摘要：
强子疗法是一种新型的肿瘤放射治疗技术，它利用带电强子束，特别是质子和碳离子束。由于它们的物理和放射生物学特性，它们允许相对于常规放射治疗中使用的光子获得更适形的治疗，更好地保留位于肿瘤附近的健康组织，并允许更好地控制疾病。强子疗法是高能物理研究的直接应用，利用专门设计的粒子加速器和探测器。质子可以被认为是今天在临床实践中的一个非常重要的工具，由于几个医院为基础的中心在运作和不断增加的设施，建议在世界各地。用碳离子束已经获得了非常有希望的结果，特别是在治疗特定的放射抗性肿瘤方面。为了优化带电强子束在癌症治疗中的使用，一个持续的技术挑战正在导致创新方法和仪器的概念和开发。本文综述了强子疗法的研究现状，并展望了强子疗法的发展前景。
英文摘要：
Hadrontherapy is a novel technique of cancer radiation therapy which employs beams of charged hadrons, protons and carbon ions in particular. Due to their physical and radiobiological properties, they allow one to obtain a more conformal treatment with respect to photons used in conventional radiation therapy, sparing better the healthy tissues located in proximity of the tumour and allowing a higher control of the disease. Hadrontherapy is the direct application of research in high energy physics, making use of specifically conceived particle accelerators and detectors. Protons can be considered today a very important tool in clinical practice due to the several hospital-based centres in operation and to the continuously increasing number of facilities proposed worldwide. Very promising results have been obtained with carbon ion beams, especially in the treatment of specific radio resistant tumours. To optimize the use of charged hadron beams in cancer therapy, a continuous technological challenge is leading to the conception and to the development of innovative methods and instruments. The present status of hadrontherapy is reviewed together with the future scientific and technological perspectives of this discipline.
