Description
D-BNCT is an accelerator-based BNCT facility in Dongguan, China. The neutrons are generated from a Lithium target bombarded by a proton beam from an intense beam RFQ linac of 3.5MeV. In its initial commission stage, it can provide beam power about 10kW on a solid lithium target. The D-BNCT neutron source now is in routine operation as a BNCT test platform open for national institutes, universities or company. Based on this platform, some BNCT key technologies will be developed. Cell and animal tests have been conducted for the development of Boron drug of BPA. Another new BNCT clinic facility is under construction for pre-clinic trail in a local hospital in Dongguan.
