摘要：
The fight against cancer now includes a wide variety of therapies, based largely on chemical and radiation treatments. One technique that has experienced a recent upsurge of interest is boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), in which boron compounds are localised at the tumour and then bombarded with neutrons. 1-6 The resulting nuclear reaction delivers a dose of radiation in situ to the tumour. Chemists are trying to improve the boron delivery process so that the radiation is maximised at the target.
