ABSTRACT:
The present embodiments relate to a gantry for the beam guidance of a particle beam with at least one beam guidance element. A carrier device is rotatably mounted in such a way that the particle beam can be directed by a rotation of the carrier device with the beam guidance element from various angles on to an object to be irradiated. At least one moveable actuating element may adjust a spatial position of the beam guidance element.
