Abstract

Background: Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a binary modality based on the nuclear reaction 10B (n, α) lithium-7 (7Li) that has been used to treat a variety of tumors, among these, cutaneous melanoma (CM). In previous boron biodistribution studies in agreement with the personalized oncology, we have demonstrated that boronophenylalanine (BPA) uptake can be correlated with the tumoral temperature and viability. The main aim of these studies was to evaluate the relationship between tumoral temperature and the response to the complete BNCT.
