Clinical requirements and accelerator concepts for BNCT

Abstract

Accelerator-based neutron sources are an attractive alternative to nuclear reactors for providing epithermal neutron beams for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy. Based on clinical requirements and neutronics modeling the use of proton and deuteron induced reactions in 7 Li and 9 Be targets has been compared. Excellent epithermal neutron beams can be produced via the 7 Li(p,n) 7 Be reaction at proton energies of ~2.5 MeV. An electrostatic quadrupole accelerator and a lithium target, which can deliver and handle 2.5 MeV protons at beam currents up to 50 mA, are under development for an accelerator-based

“…Radiotherapy which uses ionizing radiation for cancer therapy is a kind of senior physiotherapy, and also it is one of the major means of cancer therapy [1][2][3]. Because of the irregular geometry and the diffuse expansion of tumor, it is hard to sweeping clean through operation; some pathological changes' parts cannot be operated, even for the concept of beauty someone refuses operation.…”
