For this Workshop, the organizers have attempted to invite experts
from all known centers which are engaged in neutron beam
development for neutron capture therapy. The Workshop was designed
around a series of nineteen invited papers which dealt with neutron
source design and development and beam characterization and
performance. Emphasis was placed on epithermal beams because they
offer clinical advantages and are more challenging to implement
than thermal beams. Fission reactor sources were the basis for the
majority of the papers; however three papers dealt with accelerator
neutron sources. An additional three invited papers provided a
summary of clinical results of Ncr therapy in Japan between 1968
and 1989 and overviews of clinical considerations for neutron
capture therapy and of the status of tumor targeting chemical
agents for Ncr. Five contributed poster papers dealing with NCT
beam design and performance were also presented. A rapporteurs'
paper was prepared after the Workshop to attempt to summarize the
major aspects, issues, and conclusions which resulted from this
Workshop. Many people contributed to both the smooth functioning of
the Workshop and to the preparation of these proceedings. Special
thanks are reserved for Ms. Dorothy K.
