Study of variation in dose calculation accuracy between kV cone-beam computed tomography and kV fan-Beam computed tomography

Study of variation in dose calculation accuracy between kV cone-beam computed tomography and kV fan-Beam computed tomography

Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images are presently used for geometric verification for daily patient positioning. In this work, we have compared the images of CBCT with the images of conventional fan beam CT (FBCT) in terms of image quality and Hounsfield units (HUs). We also compared the dos...
