Dose distribution of (a) BNCT and (b) IMRT and MRI (c) before and (d) 11 months after combined treatment for recurrent oral cavity carcinoma. The color wash in (a) showed the BNCT dose level represented by a spectrum from the blue to the red (3.5 to 35.1 Gy-Eq, respectively). The color wash in (b) showed the area covered by 45 Gy and above with IMRT. The mean dose of BNCT was 23.0 Gy-Eq in a single fraction, and the prescription dose of IMRT was 45 Gy/25 fractions. The tumor disappeared completely after combined treatment.
