This study assessed the treatment with boron neutron capture synovectomy of synovitis in the antigen-induced arthritis (AIA) model. A boron compound, potassium dodecahydrododeca-borate (K(2)B(12)H(12)), was injected into stifle joints of 24 AIA and 12 normal rabbits and activated by neutron bombardment of the joint to achieve doses from 800 to 81,000 RBE-cGy. Synovial ablation in the AIA joint was accomplished at doses of 6,000 to 7,000 RBE-cGy with no adverse effects to skin or extracapsular tissues.
