Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a system for radiation therapy. The system may include a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) apparatus and a radiation therapy apparatus. The MRI apparatus may be configured to acquire magnetic resonance imaging data with respect to a region of interest (ROI). The radiation therapy apparatus may be configured to apply therapeutic radiation to at least one portion of the ROI when rotating with a gantry. The radiation therapy apparatus may include an eddy current reduction apparatus coupled to the gantry. The eddy current reduction apparatus may include at least one structure, wherein each of the at least one structure may include a plurality of internal structures and at least some of the plurality of internal structures are electrically disconnected from each other.
