Journal ArticleDOI
Effectiveness of BNCT for recurrent head and neck malignancies.
Itsuro Kato,Koji Ono,Yoshinori Sakurai,Masatoshi Ohmae,Akira Maruhashi,Yoshio Imahori,Mitsunori Kirihata,Mitsuhiro Nakazawa,Yoshiaki Yura +8 more
TL;DR: First in the world, six patients with a recurrent HNM who have been treated with BNCT are reported, indicating that BN CT represents a new and promising treatment approach even for a huge or far advanced HNM.
Journal ArticleDOI
Boron neutron capture therapy outcomes for advanced or recurrent head and neck cancer
Minoru Suzuki,Ituro Kato,Teruhito Aihara,Junichi Hiratsuka,Kenichi Yoshimura,Miyuki Niimi,Yoshihiro Kimura,Yasunori Ariyoshi,Shin Ichi Haginomori,Yoshinori Sakurai,Yuko Kinashi,Shin-ichiro Masunaga,Masanori Fukushima,Koji Ono,Akira Maruhashi +14 more
TL;DR: This study confirmed the feasibility of the dose-estimation method and that controlled trials are warranted and that the dose constraint was set to deliver a dose <10–12 Gy-eq to the skin or oral mucosa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characteristics comparison between a cyclotron-based neutron source and KUR-HWNIF for boron neutron capture therapy
Hiroki Tanaka,Yoshinori Sakurai,Minoru Suzuki,Shin-ichiro Masunaga,Yuko Kinashi,Genro Kashino,Yong Liu,T. Mitsumoto,Satoru Yajima,H. Tsutsui,Akira Maruhashi,Koji Ono +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, a cyclotron-based epithermal-neutron source for boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) has been proposed, which can be installed near the hospital.
Journal ArticleDOI
Boron Neutron Capture Therapy for Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma
Shinji Kawabata,Shin-Ichi Miyatake,Toshihiko Kuroiwa,Kunio Yokoyama,Atsushi Doi,Kyoko Iida,Shiro Miyata,Naosuke Nonoguchi,Hiroyuki Michiue,Masatsugu Takahashi,Taisuke Inomata,Yoshio Imahori,Mitsunori Kirihata,Yoshinori Sakurai,Akira Maruhashi,Hiroaki Kumada,Koji Ono +16 more
TL;DR: The modified BNCT protocol showed favorable results of patients with NDGB not only for those with good prognoses but also for Those with poor prognosis, especially in correspondence with the RTOG- and EORTC-RPA subclasses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modified boron neutron capture therapy for malignant gliomas performed using epithermal neutron and two boron compounds with different accumulation mechanisms: an efficacy study based on findings on neuroimages.
Shin-Ichi Miyatake,Shinji Kawabata,Yoshinaga Kajimoto,Atsushi Aoki,Kunio Yokoyama,Makoto Yamada,Toshihiko Kuroiwa,Motomu Tsuji,Yoshio Imahori,Mitsunori Kirihata,Yoshinori Sakurai,Shin-ichiro Masunaga,Kenji Nagata,Akira Maruhashi,Koji Ono +14 more
TL;DR: This modified BNCT produced a good improvement in malignant gliomas, as seen on neuroimages, and more than 50% of the contrast-enhanced lesions disappeared in eight of the 12 patients during the follow-up period.
