Evaluating the Therapeutic Dose Distribution of Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy for Head and Neck with Cone-Beam Computed Tomography Image: A Methodological Study
An approximate correction method for the CT value-electron density curve of CBCT was established, through comparison and fitting with FBCT images, and applied to evaluate the therapeutic dose of IMRT. The precision of using CBCT for plan calculation was validated by comparing the dose distribution b...
