The CNAO Foundation builds with INFN in Pavia the Centre designed by TERA on the basis of PIMMS.

Total investment: 100 M€, 80% from Health Ministry

Medical Director: Roberto Orecchia Technical Director: Sandro Rossi PIMMS/TERA Hospital building

MedAustron will build in Wiener-Neustadt a centre based on the construction drawings and the specifications bought from CNAO A French-Italian consortium has obtained the same drawings for an ETOILE proposal

Properties of the cyclinac beam

(*) With movable absorbers

The energy is changed by adjusting the RF pulses to the modules

1 second Yes No Synchrotron

  • No

Yes Cyclotron Time needed for varying the energy Energy variation by electronic means Beam always present during treatments Accelerator 1 millisecond Yes Yes Cyclinac 50-100 ms (*)

Fast cycling

The cyclinac beam is ideal to paint many times moving tumours in 3D without variable absorbers
