Cone-beam computed tomography: imaging dose during CBCT scan acquisition and accuracy of CBCT based dose calculations

Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a recent development in radiotherapy for use in image guidance. Image guided radiotherapy using CBCT allows visualization of soft tissue targets and critical structures prior to treatment. Dose escalation is made possible by accurately localizing the target vo...
