1. A beam equipment controlling system for controlling a cyclotron system, the beam equipment controlling system comprises:
a storage device, configured to store a treatment controlling application program;
at least one processor, configured to execute the treatment controlling application program to implement following modules:
a proton beam regulatory module, performing following steps when the proton beam regulatory module is implemented:
determining whether to allow the cyclotron system to generate a first proton beam; and
after confirming that the first proton beam meets first proton beam specifications, making the cyclotron system stop outputting the first proton beam and marking that a proton beam regulatory step has been completed;
a neutron beam regulatory module, performing following steps when the neutron beam regulatory module is implemented:
after confirming that the proton beam regulatory step is marked as completed and that a state of the cyclotron system meets neutron-beam generating conditions, allowing the cyclotron system to generate a first neutron beam;
confirming that the first neutron beam meets first neutron beam specifications; and
after making the cyclotron system stop outputting the first neutron beam, marking that a neutron beam regulatory step has been completed; and
a treatment regulatory module, performing following steps when the treatment regulatory module is implemented:
after confirming that the neutron beam regulatory step is marked as completed and that a state of the cyclotron system meets treatment-beam generating conditions, ordering the cyclotron system to generate a second neutron beam;
confirming whether the second neutron beam meets treatment needs; and
after making the cyclotron system stop outputting the second neutron beam, marking that a treatment regulatory step has been completed.
