Tumorbehandlung mittels Partikeltherapie

Tumor Treatment through Particle Therapy Radiation therapy is used since many decades to treat malicious neoplasms. The ionized beam destroys the genetic construction (DNA) of the cancer cell and prevents further cancer cell division, since the required information is no longer available. The cancer cell dies. The radiation therapy is used only for treatment of local neoplasms (tumor). Metastasizing neoplasms cannot be cured. Especially patients with complicated and deep in the body located neoplasms can be treated, where other conventional radiation therapies do not provide effective results. Infantile cancer types can be treated very gentle to avoid long term side effects. The particles need to be accelerated in a high vacuum environment of < 1*10^‐8 mbar by means of magnets in vacuum tubes and synchrotron apperture up to 75 % of light speed to emit its radioactive dose.
