150 MeV Proton Medical Cyclotron Design Study

Chapter
Part of the Experientia Supplementum book series (EXS, volume 24)

Abstract

A brief design study has been done for a 150 MeV proton sector cyclotron. The object was to minimize cost but maintain good reliability and easy maintenance. The use of the proton beam would be for therapy, radiography and isotope production.
