Abstract

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a beam control device for radiotherapy is provided. The beam control device may include an electron beam generator configured to emit an electron beam for radiotherapy toward a subject in a first direction. The beam control device may further include a first deflection device configured to generate a defocused electron beam by defocusing the electron beam in a second direction, the second direction being different from the first direction.
