| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The feasibility of a pinhole camerasystem for online dosimetry in boron neutron capture therapy was studied. A test version of the pinhole camera system was designed and built. The system was tested in accelerator experiments using neutrons from an accelerator neutron source. The results showed that the system can give a reaction rate distribution of the boron-neutron reaction with an enough spatial resolution.
