7. Other matters that need to be specified (If the subject of the event or resolution is a public company or above, this material information also complies with Article 7, Paragraph 9 of the Enforcement Rules of the Securities and Exchange Act, which stipulates matters that have a significant impact on shareholders'' equity or securities prices): Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) system is an advanced radiation therapy technology that combines nuclear physics and precision medicine. Its principle is to first selectively gather boron-containing drugs in tumor cells, and then irradiate them with low-energy neutrons, causing boron atoms to undergo nuclear reactions and release high-energy particles. This precisely destroys tumor cells at the cellular level while minimizing damage to surrounding normal tissues. BNCT is particularly suitable for recurrent head and neck cancers, malignant brain tumors (such as glioblastoma), and other tumors where traditional radiotherapy has limited effects or surgical removal is difficult. Its advantages include high selectivity, achieving therapeutic effects with a single or few treatments, and the potential to reduce side effects and improve quality of life.
