Evaluation of a CdTe semiconductor-based gamma camera for real-time dose dosimetry in boron neutron capture therapy. [PDF]
Med PhysAbstract Background Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a cancer treatment that leverages the nuclear reaction between boron‐10 (10B$^{10}{\rm B}$) and thermal neutrons to generate high‐energy α$\alpha$ particles and 7Li$^{7}{\rm Li}$ nuclei that selectively destroy cancer cells while sparing healthy tissues.

The Anti-Proliferative Effect of Boron Neutron Capture Therapy in a Prostate Cancer Xenograft Model. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a selective radiation treatment for tumors that preferentially accumulate drugs carrying the stable boron isotope, 10B. BNCT has been evaluated clinically as an alternative to conventional radiation therapy for the

An Introduction to Boron Neutron Therapy (BNCT): Current Status and Future Outlook
Iranian South Medical Journal, 2021 Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is based on the nuclear reaction, such that B-10 irradiated with low-energy thermal neutrons produces alpha particles with high linear energy transfer and lithium-7. Clinically, BNCT is used primarily for treatment of

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 2, 9 January 2026.The unusually high oxidation state +V of Cu, Ag, and Au is stabilized by [B11H11]4–‐based anions. For (n‐Bu4N)3[Ag(B11H11)2], the crystal structures were determined for both isomers with Ag+I and Ag+V. Abstract We disclose the synthesis and properties of [M(B11H11)2]3− (M = Cu, Ag, Au) with the first gold‐based anion [Au(B11H11)2]3−. The nido‐[B11H11]4−
