Current status of boron neutron capture therapy of high grade gliomas and recurrent head and neck cancer

Current status of boron neutron capture therapy of high grade gliomas and recurrent head and neck cancer

Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a biochemically targeted radiotherapy based on the nuclear capture and fission reactions that occur when non-radioactive boron-10, which is a constituent of natural elemental boron, is irradiated with low energy thermal neutrons to yield high linear energy tra...
