The main characteristics of alpha rays are that they contain a large amount of energy, but only travel short distances. Radiotherapy using alpha rays has been highly anticipated in recent years because it significantly damages cancer cells, but exposes the surrounding normal tissues to less radiation. In particular, alpha ray therapy has already been used to treat bone metastases. In addition, boron neutron capture therapy has started to be employed in the clinical setting.
