Monte Carlo based dosimetry for neutron capture therapy of brain tumors

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) is a biologically targeted, radiation therapy for cancer which combines neutron irradiation with a tumor targeting agent labeled with a boron10 having a high thermal neutron capture cross section.

Design of a neutron target for boron neutron capture therapy

He jishu
BackgroundBoron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a promising tumor therapy method that irradiates 10B attached tumors with thermal or epithermal neutrons. Specifically, 7Li(p,n)7Be is one of the main methods for producing thermal or epithermal neutrons.

325. Boron Neutron Capture Therapy

Reports of Practical Oncology & Radiotherapy, 2003
IntroductionBoron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) is a unique form of radiotherapy that carries a potential for a significant improvement in therapeutic gain. That technique involves the concurrent presence of thermal neutrons (energy ? 1 eV) and a 10B capture agent. Their interaction generates heavy particles expected to damage tumor cells. Physics and

Boron neutron capture therapy: Moving toward targeted cancer therapy

Journal of Cancer Research and Therapeutics, 2016
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) occurs when a stable isotope, boton-10, is irradiated with low-energy thermal neutrons to yield stripped down helium-4 nuclei and lithium-7 nuclei. It is a binary therapy in the treatment of cancer in which a cytotoxic event is triggered when an atom placed in a cancer cell.

Macrophages as carriers of boron carbide nanoparticles dedicated to boron neutron capture therapy

Journal of Nanobiotechnology
Background The use of cells as carriers for the delivery of nanoparticles is a promising approach in anticancer therapy, mainly due to their natural properties, such as biocompatibility and non-immunogenicity.
