Abstract
This paper presents a conceptual design of the Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) facility based on the medical room of Tehran Research Reactor (TRR). The medical room is located behind the east wall of the reactor pool. The designed beam line is an in-pool Beam Shaping Assembly (BSA) which is considered between the reactor core and the medical room wall. The final designed BSA can provide 2.96× 109 n/cm2⋅s epithermal neutron flux at the irradiation position with acceptable beam contamination to use as a clinical BNCT.
