筑波大学不仅正在开发用于BNCT的基于直线加速器的中子源（iBNCT），而且还在开发用于BNCT的多模式治疗计划系统（Tsukuba-Plan）。我们目前正在进行多项核查。利用Tsukuba-Plan对iBNCT中的体模实验进行了模拟，并将模拟结果与实验测量结果进行了比较。计算结果与实测值吻合较好。结果表明，Tsukuba-Plan可以正确估计iBNCT的BNCT治疗剂量。
The University of Tsukuba is developing not only a linac-based neutron source for BNCT (iBNCT) but also a multi-modal treatment planning system (Tsukuba-Plan) for BNCT. We are currently performing several verifications. Phantom experiments performed in iBNCT were simulated by the Tsukuba-Plan, and the calculation results were compared with the measurements from the experiments. The calculations were in good agreement with the measurements. The results demonstrated that the Tsukuba-Plan can perform to estimate doses properly for BNCT treatment at iBNCT.
