Abstract

The experimental investigation of passing the focused x-ray beams through the water phantoms imitating a biological tissue has been performed. Focusing of the radiation is carried out by means of Kumakhov lenses. The possibility of efficient using the capillary lenses in the ray therapy is shown. Prospects of the application of Kumakhov lenses in therapy of melanoma, oncological eye diseases, etc. are discussed.
