A neutron capture therapy apparatus includes a neutron beam irradiation system, a detection system and a monitoring system. The neutron beam irradiation system is configured for generating a neutron beam. The detection system is configured for detecting real-time irradiation parameters during a neutron beam irradiation therapy process. The monitoring system is configured for controlling the whole neutron beam irradiation process and includes an input part for inputting preset irradiation parameters, a determination part for determining whether the irradiation parameters need to be corrected and a correction part for correcting some of the irradiation parameters when the determination part determines that the irradiation parameters need to be corrected.

A radiation treatment session is initiated to deliver a therapeutic radiation beam from a therapeutic radiation source to a target. One or more X-ray radiation sources are caused to deliver an imaging radiation beam from the one or more X-ray radiation sources through the target to one or more X-ray detectors to acquire imaging data associated with the target during therapeutic radiation beam delivery. One or more volumetric images are constructed using the acquired imaging data.

Disclosed herein is a medical instrument (100, 300). Execution of the machine executable instructions causes a processor (106) to: receive (206) a set of joint location coordinates (128) for a subject (118) reposing on a subject support (120), receive (207) a body orientation (132) in response to inputting the set of joint location coordinates into a predetermined logic module (130), calculate (208) a torso aspect ratio (134) from set of joint location coordinates. If (210) the torso aspect ratio is greater than a predetermined threshold (136) then (212) the body pose of the subject is a decubitus pose. Execution of the machine executable instructions further cause the processor to assign (220) the body pose as being a supine pose if the subject is face up on the subject support or assign (222) the body pose as being a prone pose if the subject is face down on the subject support if the torso aspect ratio is less than or equal to the predetermined threshold. Execution of the machine executable instructions further cause the processor to generate (216) a subject pose label (142).

A radiation therapy system includes an accelerator and beam transport system that generates a beam of particles. The accelerator and beam transport system guides the beam on a path and into a nozzle that is operable for aiming the beam toward an object. The nozzle includes a scanning magnet operable for steering the beam toward different locations within the object, and also includes a beam energy adjuster configured to adjust the beam by, for example, placing different thicknesses of material in the path of the beam to affect the energies of the particles in the beam.
