A role of FBPA-PET for BNCT
Description
18F-FBPA-PET is investigated as a method for selection of candidate patients and prediction of therapeutic sensitivity of BNCT. Microdistribution of BPA influences the biological effect of BNCT. Therefore, FBPA-PET is just a necessary condition and not a sufficient condition to select a candidate patient and predict a sensitivity of tumor for BNCT because an image obtained from FBPA-PET is a kind of macroscopic one. In this review, I will explain the implications and expectations of FBPA-PET which can be deduced from the consideration of CBE factor. (author)
