Initial evaluation of accelerator-based neutron source system at the Shonan Kamakura General Hospital

An accelerator-based boron neutron capture therapy (AB-BNCT) system was installed at the Shonan Kamakura General Hospital (SKGH). We confirmed that a stable operation was possible for 1 h at a current of 30 mA. The evaluated thermal neutron flux was 2.8 × 109 cm−2 s−1 and in good agreement (±5%) wit...
