Finnish Dosimetric Practice for Epithermal Neutron Beam Dosimetry in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a form of chemically targeted radiotherapy that utilises the high neutron capture cross-section of boron-10 isotope to achieve a preferential dose increase in the tumour.

Biological evaluation of a glucose‐based boron carrier as a potential agent for boron neutron capture therapy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, Volume 157, Issue 11, Page 2374-2384, 1 December 2025.
What's New? Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a targeted form of radiation therapy designed to selectively destroy cancer cells. BNCT is not widely used, however, owing in part to challenges involving selective boron delivery to tumors. The present study evaluated the potential of a novel glucoconjugate, 6‐O‐(o‐carboranylmethyl)‐d‐glucopyranose ...

On Operator-Valued Bi-Free Distributions

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper, operator-valued bi-free distributions are investigated. Given a subalgebra $D$ of a unital algebra $B$, it is established that a two-faced family $Z$ is bi-free from $(B, B^{\mathrm{op}})$ over $D$ if and only if certain conditions ...

Boronated Compounds for Imaging Guided BNCT Applications

open access: yesAnti-Cancer Agents in Medicinal Chemistry, 2012
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is based on the capture of thermal neutrons by boron 10 ((10)B) nuclei that have been selectively delivered to tumor cells. The amount of 10-30 μg of boron for g of tumor mass is needed to attain an acceptable therapeutic advantage.

Prediction of Boron Concentrations in Blood from Patients on Boron Neutron Capture Therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Background: In boron neutron capture therapy, blood boron concentration is the key factor to calculate radiation dose, however, blood sampling is difficult during neutron irradiation.

Recent research progress of BNCT treatment planning system

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a type of radiation therapy that can selectively kill tumor cells. It is necessary to design a suitable treatment plan and assess its efficacy based on the actual situation of the patient before BNCT treatment. The

Development of an integrated Monte Carlo model for glioblastoma multiforme treated with boron neutron capture therapy

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Glioblastomas (GBM) are notorious for their high fatality rate. Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) being a biochemically targeted type of radiotherapy is a potent modality for GBM.

Preliminary outcomes of boron neutron capture therapy for head and neck cancers as a treatment covered by public health insurance system in Japan: Real‐world experiences over a 2‐year period

open access: yesCancer Medicine
Purpose Since June 2020, boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) has been a health care service covered by health insurance in Japan to treat locally advanced or recurrent unresectable head and neck cancers.
