Conventional and commercially available Radiation Therapy (RT) treatment systems utilise S-band linac technologies coupled to magnetron or klystron RF power sources, which invariably entails incorporation of the linac structure inside the rotating gantry for circumferential patient treatment. The theme of this activity is to assess a variety of different linac and RF source configuration options, taking advantage of recent technology developments in frequency ranges outside of the conventional provision. Advances in both Standing Wave and Travelling Wave linac operational performance and solid state, magnetron and klystron RF power delivery capabilities, have the potential to be able to define a new RT system configuration which can not only outperform, but also may offer a simpler, more efficient and robust system integration platform which can be more appropriately applied for ODA country exploitation.

传统和市售的放射治疗 (RT) 治疗系统利用与磁控管或速调管射频电源耦合的 S 波段直线加速器技术，这总是需要将直线加速器结构纳入旋转机架内，以进行圆周患者治疗。本次活动的主题是评估各种不同的直线加速器和射频源配置选项，利用常规频率范围之外的最新技术发展。驻波和行波直线加速器操作性能以及固态、磁控管和速调管射频功率传输能力的进步，有可能定义一种新的 RT 系统配置，该配置不仅性能优于其他系统，而且还可以提供更简单、更高效的系统配置。高效、稳健的系统集成平台，更适合应用于ODA国家开发。
