Dose calculation accuracy of clinical radiotherapy plans using next generation cone beam computed tomography imaging technology
Next generation CBCT allows for good average DVH agreement with CTsim, and improved dose calculation accuracy over standard CBCT across 3D dose distributions. While further clinical investigations are warranted, this technology may allow for the use of CBCT in direct-dose calculation in adaptive radiotherapy.
