The director of the Institute of Nuclear Physics also said that in the past year the scientists have been able to reinforce the particle accelerator's capacity to the level that allows to carry out the trials. According to Lobachev, the new goal was to perfect the delivery of the boron compounds into the malignant tumors.

 

Lobachev expressed hope that BNCT program would launch in 2017 and added that it had united a number of Russian research institutes specializing in chemistry, biology, physics and medicine.
