We are developing accelerator-based neutron irradiation machinery for BNCT (boron neutron capture therapy) and the optimal administration technique for the boron compound of BPA, and conducting research on F-BPA PET, in pursuit of comprehensive establishment of clinical application of BNCT, which can offer biologically effective tumor cell-specific irradiation.
