Dear Friends,

I am happy to inform you that clinical BNCT trials have been initiated in
Sweden. The first patient was treated at the Studsvik BNCT facility March
13. The procedure went smoothly and the relatively high boron concentration
in the blood (30 ppm) during the irradiation makes us hope that it will be
effective, too.

To learn more about the Swedish BNCT project at Studsvik you are welcomed to
visit our home page:  www.bnct.net

With my best regards, especially to those of you who supported our effort by
sharing with us their experience and, in a few cases, unpublished data
during the preparation phase,

Jacek Capala
