Abstract: An X-ray system comprises: (a) a source providing an X-ray diverging beam having treatment and imaging angular portions; (b) one or more lenses transforming the treatment portion of the X-ray beam into a converging beam directed to a target; (c) a first shutter located between the X-ray source and the target in the imaging portion of the X-ray radiation; the first shutter being selectively openable such that imaging portion of X-ray beam reaches the target; and (d) a detector configured to detect at least a portion of the imaging radiation after the imaging radiation has interacted with the target to provide imaging information of the target.

Abstract: A method of a radiotherapy or radiosurgery treatment comprises steps of: (a) providing a converging x-ray beam source configured for emitting a converging X-ray beam propagating along an axis thereof; (b) emitting the converging x-ray beam towards a volume of treatment (VOT) having a length along the axis of the converging X-ray beam ranging between 2 mm and 5 cm within a patient's body such that a waist portion is within the VOT; (c) propagating the beam through tissues previously located relative to the VOT (PO); the VOT per se and tissues distally located to the VOT (DO). The converging X-ray beam characterized by a convergent angle ranging between 2 and 30 degrees providing 80% to 100% of a maximum dose is received by the VOT and less than 60% of the maximum dose is received by the PO and the DO.

Abstract: A method of evaluating a maximal dose deposited by a non-uniform X-ray beam within a medium comprising the steps of: (a) irradiating said medium by said non-uniform X-ray beam penetrating into a depth of said medium along an axis of said X-ray beam; (b) incrementally measuring a number of transversal dose distributions at successive depths along said axis; (c) determining a maximum dose within each of said number of transversal dose distributions; and (d) calculating a 1-Dimesional depth dependance of said maximal doses obtained from said number of transversal dose distributions.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for activating a pro-drug in vivo comprising the steps of: (a) administering a pro-drag to a subject; (b) locating a target site which has been at least partially dosed with the pro-drug at a predetermined concentration; and (d) exposing the target site to X-ray radiation. The step of exposing the target site to X-ray radiation is characterized by providing a converging X-ray of a controllable waist, substantially uniform at the target site, sufficient to convert the pro-drug to an active drug, while the X-ray photon dosage at the target site is higher than the X-ray photon dosage at an adjacent non target site.

Abstract: An X-ray lens arrangement for forming a radiation pattern as a focal track is disclosed. The pattern comprises at least one 3-dimensional focal track of radiation. The aforesaid lens arrangement has a main axis passing through intensity weighted centroids of the Xray source and the pattern. The lens arrangement includes at least one reflecting surface of continuously varying Rowland arcs. Each point belonging to the focal track is linked to each elemental point composing an emitting surface of said source by a corresponding Rowland arc.

Abstract: A standard of care protocol for increasing efficiency of a radiotherapy or radiosurgery treatment and reducing the treatment's side effects by radiating with a converging x-ray beam source emitting a converging x-ray beam (102) towards at least one volume of treatment (VOT) (103) within a patient's body; the beam is passing through at least one organ preceding said VOT (PO) (105) and at least one organ distal to said VOT (DO) (106); the VOT is receiving, on average, at least 80% of maximum dose whilst thr PO and DO are receiving, on average, no more than 40% of the maximum dose.
