Abstract
Over the past several years, we have been involved in the development of a noninvasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) method for quantifying boron drug pharmacokinetics in tumor and other tissues of the canine head1–3. The underlying aims for this research are to provide a method to evaluate the suitability of boron compounds and to provide a potential drug prescreen as an aid to BNCT dosimetry calculations to be used in patient treatment planning.
