Research Abstract |
The T/N ratio by BPA-PET in front of BNCT is 1.9-4.0. The neutron exposure is up to 20.1-39.1Gy-Eq, and the minimum is 9.12 - 31.9Gy-Eq. The neutron exposure in the oral mucosa is 9.03-15.7Gy-Eq. The normal skin surface is 2.81-7.64Gy-Eq. A reduction effect of tumor is CR two cases, PR five cases, PD one case A survival period after BNCT is 4-44 months. For adverse side effects, mucositis, fatigue, alopecia, impaired taste, and pharyngeal edema were observed. Neither myelosuppression nor osteomyelitis of the jaw bone was observed. Side effect
