Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) is a cancer therapy by utilizing the thermal neutron capture reactions by boron-10 isotope which produces alpha particles and lithium nuclei. The superiority of BNCT is that radiation effects could be limited to tumor cells. BNCT radiation dose depends on the dis...
