Princípios e aplicações da Terapia por Captura de Nêutrons por Boro – BNCT

Abstract: ResumoA terapia por captura de nêutrons (neutron capture therapy -NCT) é uma técnica radioterápica bimodal com princípios de funcionamento muito vantajosos para o tratamento de cânceres difusos. Contudo, apesar dessa vantagem conceitual e de sua primeira proposição já exceder 80 anos, essa técnica ainda não se encontra consolidada na comunidade clínica internacional como proposta terapêutica. Esse insucesso em seu estabelecimento não tem impedido que diversos grupos de pesquisa de diversos países do mundo invi… Show more

“…The Neutron flux source consists, as already mentioned, of two different kinds of McStas components, namely Source_gen( ) and Virtu-al_mcnp_input( ), which correspond in present simulations on an ILL thermal source and the IEA-R1 BH3 source. facility shielding simulations and further studies [23,24]. The IEA-R1 source mimics the real flux of the Brazilian reactor and consequently possesses the reactor geometry and the beam hole aperture.…”
