Fig. 1

Time-dependent beam spot delivery pattern of the proton therapy system. This figure shows the synchrotron operation pattern and the irradiation timing according to the patient's breathing pattern. Beam spots were irradiated when the gating signal was switched on. The rest and move are statically determined times occurring before and after irradiation and the moving time to the next spot delivery position, respectively
