Dosimetric impact and safety of uninterrupted fluoroscopic‐gated proton therapy
Scattered fluoroscopic x-rays were confirmed to contaminate the DM and be counted as proton MUs. However, under clinically realistic beam current conditions, their impact on dose distribution in UCD FGPT was negligible. These findings support the feasibility of implementing UCD FGPT.
