Assessment of Chitosan Modified Nanoparticles, as Boron Carriers in BNCT
Background and purpose: Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) is a promising radiotherapy based on the accumulation of Boron into the tumor and subsequent irradiation with low energy neutrons. It leads to the decay of 10B to 7Li and α particle, causing the death of the neoplastic cells. Here we repo...
