Claim 10:
11. Heart arrhythmia treatment device comprising:
a charged particle emitting system for generating a charged particle beam with required properties for ablation of a targeted tissue of a heart of a patient, the charged particle emitting system being configured to deliver a Bragg peak of the charged particle beam to the targeted tissue;
an ultrasound cardiac imaging system configured to image a relevant region of the heart that is relevant to assess motion of the targeted tissue and corresponding cardiac and respiratory cycle phases of the patient; and
a control system that instructs the charged particle emitting system when to generate the charged particle beam based on information of the cardiac and respiratory cycle phases provided by the ultrasound cardiac imaging system,
wherein, at a treatment stage, the control unit is configured to process ultrasound images acquired with the ultrasound cardiac imaging system.
