SEZIONE DI NAPOLI
Workshop on the "HADRON BEAM THERAPY OF CANCER" Erice, Sicily, April 24th, May 1st 2009. The Workshop will be held in the frame of International School on Hadrontherapy «Edwin McMillan» run by "ETTORE MAJORANA FOUNDATION AND CENTRE FOR SCIENTIFIC CULTURE". There is world-wide interest in hadron (typically protons and carbon ions) radiotherapy. Installations are being built in many different countries. There is need, however, to review the medical experience, compare that with X-Rays (and future developments of X-Ray device and modalities of treatment) and to discuss, and compare, the various accelerating machines (cyclotrons, synchrotrons, linacs) and delivery systems (gantries). These will be the themes of the Workshop.
