Abstract	CNAO is a synchrotron accelerator presently under commissioning in Pavia. The aim of this accelerator is to treat tumors with hadrons and to perform advanced clinical and radiobiological research. The CNAO will start treating patients with protons (60250 MeV range) and carbon ions (120400 MeV/u range) in three treatment rooms with four beam lines. Future upgrade with gantries is foreseen. This paper describes the design, magnetic measurements and sorting criterion used for the sixteen synchrotron main dipoles and twentyfour quadrupoles. The magnetic measurements results are compared with magnetic simulation
