摘要：A synchrotron-based proton therapy(PT)facility that conforms with the requirement of future development trend in compact PT can be operated without an energy selection *** article demonstrates a novel radiation shielding design for this *** FlUKAbased Monte Carlo simulations have been performed to validate its *** this design,two different shielding scenarios(3-m-thick concrete and 2-m-thick iron–concrete)are proved able to reduce the public annual dose to the limit of 0.1 mSv/*** calculation result shows that the non-primary radiation from a PT system without an inner shielding wall complies with the IEC 60601-2-64 international standard,making a single room a ***,the H/D value of this design decreases from 2.14 to 0.32 mSv/Gy when the distance ranges from 50 to 150 cm from the isocenter,which is consistent with the previous result from another *** establishing a typical time schedule and procedures in a treatment day for a single room in the simulation,a non-urgent machine maintenance time of 10 min after treatment is recommended,and the residual radiation level in most areas can be reduced to 2.5 lSv/*** annual dose for radiation therapists coming from the residual radiation is 1 mSv,which is 20%of the target *** general,this shielding design ensures a low cost and compact facility compared with the cyclotron-based PT system.
