Abstract
Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) project in Tehran Research Reactor (TRR) is currently ongoing and an appropriate neutron beam for BNCT has been provided by modification of TRR thermal column. In order to measure the neutron beam characteristics inside of a phantom, a standard phantom is needed. The present paper describes details of the head phantom construction and its different potential. The constructed head phantom permits us to put different dosimeters with different sizes in many locations of the phantom volume. Foils, wires, TLDs and ion chamber can be placed inside of its volume. Gel dosimeter can also be poured into the phantom volume and removed from it easily.
