Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) of a localized tumor needs a sufficient thermal neutron flux at the tumor. A surgical operation including ennucleation of the main part of tumor is required for the case of thermal neutron beam from a thermal reactor because of the rapid decrease of the neutron flux in the tissue. Intermediate neutrons with little fast neutron component are only produced by a specifically designed reactor which awaits to be build.<BR>In the present paper, a positive use of fast neutron beams in addition to BNCT is proposed for treatment of some kind of localized tumors employing a fission fast neutrons from a fast neutron source reactor "YAYOI" of University of Tokyo which is licenced as such. Dose distributions in a water phantom located at a proposed position for two collimator cases were measured and its availability was confirmed as a possible port for therapy.
