Transformative Accelerator-based Neutron System

Alphabeam™ System

Neutrons are subatomic particles with no electrical charge. Historically, neutrons for BNCT were only available from the core of a nuclear reactor, which posed a significant barrier to clinical research and adoption as a practical cancer therapy. Our Alphabeam System (ABS) includes a compact tandem accelerator-based neutron source designed to be installed in a hospital setting and can be deployed as a single or multi-room facility to meet your clinical, research, and capacity needs.
