ABSTRACT:
Neutron-based radiotherapy apparatus comprising a linear charged-particle accelerator which delivers a beam of accelerated electrons, a target intended to be bombarded by the beam of accelerated electrons for emitting neutrons under the impact of that beam, means for cooling the target, means for eliminating parasitic radiations, and a collimation system for the useful beam of neutrons. The electron accelerator may be arranged either on the inside or on the outside of the rotating arm of the neutron-radiotherapy apparatus.
