Figure 3: Effects of B4C-mediated BNCT on body weight. Nude mice carrying SAS tumors received 50 μl of 250 ppm B4C solution intratumorally. Ten minutes later, tumors were exposed to thermal neutrons. The experimental groups were as follows: untreated control, neutron only, and B4C-mediated BNCT. After BNCT, body weight was measured during the experiment n=5.
