Abstract:
There are provided with a respiration induction apparatus that induces respiration, based on a desired respiration waveform; a switching device that switches the orbit of a particle beam; and an irradiation apparatus that controls irradiation, in synchronization with the desired respiration waveform. A controller, which performs synchronization control of the switching device and the respiration induction apparatuses in a plurality of treatment rooms, adjusts the periods and the phases of the desired respiration waveforms of the respiration induction apparatuses in the treatment rooms so that the irradiation times synchronized with the desired respiration waveforms in the treatment rooms do not overlap with one another, and controls the switching device so as to switch the orbits of the particle beam, in accordance with the respective irradiation times of the treatment rooms.
