Nuclear medicine is expected to make major advances in cancer diagnosis and therapy;
tumor-targeted radiopharmaceuticals preferentially eradicate tumors while causing minimal …

In this paper, we discuss the role of particle therapy—a novel radiation therapy (RT) that has
shown rapid progress and widespread use in recent years—in multidisciplinary treatment …

Recognizing the large neutron capture cross section of boron, the suitability of boron
containing resources are studied for protection against nuclear radiation. Experimental and …

Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a re-emerging therapy with the ability to selectively
kill tumor cells. After the boron delivery agents enter the tumor tissue and enrich the tumor …

Abstract Mechanism of Action External beam, whether with photons or particles, remains as
the most common type of radiation therapy. The main drawback is that radiation deposits …

Simple Summary Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a tumor-selective particle
radiotherapy. It combines preferential boron accumulation in tumors and neutron irradiation …

Background Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a unique type of radiation therapy that
enables biological targeting of cancer at the cellular level. BNCT has been used to treat …

A boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) system, using boron-10-introduced agents coupled
with companion diagnostics, is anticipated as a promising cancer theranostic. Thus, this …

BNCT is a radiotherapeutic method for cancer treatment that uses tumor-targeting 10B-
compounds. BNCT for cutaneous melanoma using BPA, a phenylalanine derivative, was …

New multifunctional theranostic vectors allow the expansion of cancer therapeutic
approaches toward scarcely investigated fields. One example is the combination of boron …
