The transporter‐associated BNCT strategy using BBCIP with or without BPA according to tumor transporter characteristics. BPA showed greater efficacy in LAT1‐dominant F98 glioma, whereas BBCIP was more effective in SMVT‐high CRL1666 tumors, suggesting the potential utility of transporter‐based boron carrier selection in BNCT.

Luminescence and Photochromism in Lanthanide‐Doped Hackmanites
Lanthanide‐doped lithium hackmanite derivatives are prepared utilizing a doped LiAlSiO4 precursor to modify luminescent and photochromic properties. Upon UV excitation, europium doping results in green Eu2+ persistent luminescence from shallow traps. Contrarily, samarium doping induces unusual near‐infrared photochromism.

Development of a linear array for intracavitary in vivo dosimetry during external beam radiotherapy and brachytherapy. [PDF]
We present the details of a new linear array dosimeter consisting of a chain of semiconductors mounted on an ultra-thin (50 μm thick) flexible substrate and housed in an intracavitary catheter. The semiconductors, manufactured by NMRC Cork, have not been

Pulse‐to‐pulse analysis of ultra‐high dose per pulse electron beams using beam current transformers
Abstract Background Ultra‐high dose per pulse (UHDPP) beams have shown to be promising for clinical applications due to their healthy tissue sparing potential. In this radiotherapy modality, a limited number of pulses (often < 25) can deliver the prescribed dose, making pulse‐to‐pulse beam stability essential for accurate dose delivery. In this context,
