Description

Company with the development of science, the neutron is used more and more widely, for example, neutron therapy cancer, neutron logging, neutron photograph and so on. The most wide application on medical treatment with neutron is boron neutron capture therapy. But it also brings some problems when it is in use. When the operator perform with the neutron, it may receive neutron irradiation. So the measurement and calculation for neutron dose become important. At home the research of neutron dose need to be advanced research. So the measurement and calculation method of neutron dose are conformed and summarized in this article for advance research.
