Summary:Title screen
One of the problems in developing the neutron capture therapy (NCT) of malignancies is the absence (or unavailability) of neutron sources having necessary intensity and spectrum. The first (and the only so far) experimental medical irradiation units for neutron capture therapy in Russia were created at IRT MEPhI nuclear reactor. At the exit of the tangential channel, there is a device for irradiating superficial tumors by thermal neutrons. A combined beam of thermal and epithermal neutrons that allows processing deep-lying tumors was implemented on the basis of a thermal column.
