Should we learn about the
Proton Treatment Method?
“
”
Wobbling? Scanning?
What	
  is	
  the	
  difference	
  between	
  
the	
  two?
The	
  proton	
  beam	
  that	
  is	
  produced	
  from	
  the	
  accelerator	
  
has	
  a	
  thickness	
  of	
  about 3mm
However,	
  the	
  size	
  of	
  the	
  tumor	
  are	
  all	
  different
Therefore,	
  	
  
the	
  size	
  of	
  the	
  proton	
  beam	
  has	
  be	
  adjusted	
  to	
  the	
  size	
  of	
  the	
  tumor
But	
  how? Depending	
  on	
  how	
  the	
  proton	
  beam	
  is	
  used,	
  
the	
  proton	
  treatment	
  method	
  is	
  divided	
  in	
  two	
  ways
First, the	
  Wobblingmethod
The	
  proton	
  beam	
  comes	
  in	
  contact	
  with	
  a	
  thin	
  plate	
  to	
  become	
  
expanded	
  and	
  it	
  is	
  a	
  method	
  used	
  to	
  treat	
  large	
  tumor	
  sites
Second, the	
  Scanning	
  method
By	
  dividing	
  up	
  the	
  energy	
  intensity	
  of	
  the	
  proton	
  beam	
  
from	
  several	
  into	
  several	
  hundred,	
  
it	
  is	
  a	
  method	
  that	
  accurately	
  applies	
  the	
  proton	
  beam	
  
to	
  the	
  corresponding	
  size	
  of	
  the	
  tumor
to	
  facilitate	
  a	
  more	
  precise	
  treatment
VS
Wobbling	
  Method
Using	
  the	
  block	
  and	
  compensator,	
  
transfer	
  the	
  expanded	
  proton	
  beam	
  to	
  
the	
  corresponding	
  tumor	
  shape
Scanning	
  Method
Proton	
  beam	
  of	
  a	
  pencil	
  thickness	
  
transferred	
  to	
  the	
  corresponding	
  tumor	
  shape
The	
  Scanning	
  method,	
  
in	
  comparison	
  to	
  the	
  Wobbling	
  method,	
  it	
  has	
  an	
  advantage	
  of	
  
transferring	
  sufficient	
  amount	
  of	
  radiation	
  to	
  the	
  tumor	
  while	
  minimizing	
  
radiation	
  exposure	
  to	
  the	
  surrounding	
  normal	
  tissues	
  to	
  decrease	
  the	
  
development	
  of	
  side	
  effects.
Particularly,
radiation	
  can	
  be	
  accurately	
  transferred	
  to	
  tumor	
  according	
  to	
  its	
  shape.	
  
Therefore,	
  
it	
  can	
  be	
  regarded	
  as	
  the	
  most	
  exquisite	
  proton	
  treatment	
  method.
