If your talking about one for cancer treatment in a radiotherapy department, depending on the whether you have a basic machine or a one with all the add ons - IMRT and IGRT capability, OBI and MLC's (although these come as standard now) they can range from around the £1.5 million to £3 million plus mark for the machine only not including building, commissioning and running costs.
Adapted linear accelerator
A linear accelerator works by having a magnet at the end of the accelerator. If the particle is neutral then it will not be attracted to the magnet and therefore nothing will happen, as in the case of a neutron.
linear accelerator is commonly used for external beam radiation treatment for patients with cancer.The linear accelerator is used to treat all parts/organs of the body.It used to treat all body site,using conventional technique.......LAVANDER GIRL_08
electrons and protons
Linear Accelerator
Neutrons have a neutral charge. It is a particle's charge that permits it to be boosted in a linear accelerator. Thus protons and electrons can be boosted, but neutrons alone cannot.
A linac, which is a foreshortening of linear accelerator, is sometimes used to refer to that device.
It's called a linear accelerator.

Unilac is Universal Linear accelerator. The accelerator is a heavy ion linac that is based at the GSI Helmholtz Centre specifically for Heavy Ion Research. The accelerator can provide beams of accelerated ions of many elements that range from hydrogen to uranium.
The exact value is 9.3635 so I would say probably 9.37
$1,500 per linear foot. Or so.
