Abstract:
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a tumor-selective radiation therapy using alpha and (7)Li particles, which are produced by the reaction of neutron with boron ((10)B), and taken up by the tumor. The authors report their first experience of BNCT on a patient with no history of surgery, chemotherapy or conventional radiotherapy for papillary cystadenocarcinoma in the upper lip.
