Optical density of high fluence autoradiographic images to study boron microdistribution: validation of the technique in tissue sections

The distribution of boron in biological samples coming from BNCT protocols can be determined by the analysis of autoradiographic images formed by nuclear tracks on polymeric detectors. The tissue section is first explored to delimit regions of interest (ROIs), and then it is removed in order to reve...
