TULIP: a Single Room Facility projectTULIP: a Single Room Facility project

Why single room facilities ?– Proton therapy beneficial to at least 12% of X-ray patients

(ENLIGHT studies outcome)(ENLIGHT studies outcome)– ~ 2.400 patients/year every 10'000'000 people– 1 proton room every 1.5 Milion inhabitantsp y

Advantages– Spread the investement cost– Hospital based protontherapy (not dedicated centres)

Technical challengesSize and cost of the machine– Size and cost of the machine

– Dose delivery modalities– Treatment time

• different combinations of dynamic parameters

the higher the gantry speed thethe higher the gantry speed the higher must be the repetition rate

to deliver all spots

DDiff = Ddyn(f= 100Hz, vGantry = 1°/s) - Dstatic

Difference dose distribution :Good agreement of the dynamic

and static dose distributions within the target!
