Introduction: The brain tumor is an abnormal growth of tissue in the brain, which is one of the most important challenges in neurology. Brain tumors have different types. Some brain tumors are benign and some brain tumors are cancerous and malignant. Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) is the most common and deadliest malignant brain tumor in adults. The average survival rate for peo...

background : central nervous system tumors account for 2%-5% of all malignancies in humans. these tumors account for 2% of all pediatric cancers. the worldwide incidence of primary central nervous system tumors is estimated at 3.9 (males) and 3.2 (females) per 100000 person-years. the incidence of brain tumor cases has been reported as 3.67% of all malignancies and 4% of all cancer mortalities ...

introduction bnct is an effective method to destroy brain tumoral cells while sparing the healthy tissues. the recommended flux for epithermal neutrons is 109 n/cm2s, which has the most effectiveness on deep-seated tumors. in this paper, it is indicated that using d-t neutron source and optimizing of beam shaping assembly (bsa) leads to treating brain tumors in a reasonable time where all iaea ...
