Recently it has been suggested that the presence of boron-11 during proton therapy leads to a significant dose increasement in the BUR. Three high-LET alpha particles with an average energy of 4 MeV are generated at the point of interaction between proton and boron-11. Nevertheless, the cross-section of p+B11→3α interaction is negligible and dose increasement is unlikely. The purpose of this study is dose evaluation of the proton therapy with and without the boron-11. All simulations were performed using MCNPX 2.
