Summary:In order to provide a neutron therapy apparatus which give multi angles neutron beam irradiation, the neutron therapy apparatus includes: a beam shaping assembly including a moderator and a reflector surrounding the moderator, wherein the moderator moderates neutrons to a predetermined energy spectrum and the reflector guides deflected neutrons back to enhance the neutron intensity in the predetermined energy spectrum; a neutron generator embedded inside the beam shaping assembly, wherein the neutron generator generates neutrons after irradiated by an ion beam; and an irradiation room for receiving a irradiated object, a shielding assembly connected to the beam shaping assembly, wherein the shielding assembly moves together with the beam shaping assembly and shields the radioactive rays leaked from the beam shaping assembly all the time.
