Abstract
This research purpose is to estimate the dose distribution of BNCT in water phantom. Some common methods in the treatment of cancer such as brakhiterapi, surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy still have the risk of damaging healthy tissue around cancer cells. BNCT is a selectively-designed technique by targeting high-loaded LET particles to tumors at the cellular level. BNCT proves to be a powerful method of killing cancer without damaging normal tissue. The source of the neutron used from the cyclotron dose in water phantom with the size of 30 cm x 30 cm x 30 cm was calculated using PHITS program. The result from the simulation is that boron water panthom has a dosimetri higher than phantom water without boron.
本研究的目的是估计BNCT在水影中的剂量分布。一些常见的治疗癌症的方法,如brakhiterapi、手术、化疗和放疗,仍然有损害癌细胞周围健康组织的风险。BNCT是一种选择性设计的技术,通过在细胞水平上将高负载LET颗粒靶向肿瘤。事实证明,BNCT是一种在不损害正常组织的情况下杀死癌症的有效方法。利用PHITS程序计算了30 cm × 30 cm × 30 cm水幻影中回旋加速器剂量所使用的中子源。模拟结果表明,含硼水的辐射剂量比无硼水的辐射剂量高。
