Current AAPM guidelines (TG-104 and MPPG 2.b) primarily address kV or standard MV portal beams for imaging and are not well suited for low-dose-rate 2.5 MV imaging beams, particularly in establishing dose and image quality baselines. This study developed and...

Characterization of Free-Breathing Gated CBCT Imaging on C-Arm Linac with Hypersight
An improved imager and software (HyperSight on a Varian TrueBeam linac) feature a larger detector panel and increase the maximum gantry rotation speed for CBCT imaging to 1.5 revolutions per minute (rpm). While enabling faster acquisition, its impact on free-...

Iodine Versus Calcium Quantification Via Analyzing HU Spectral Curves In Dual-Energy CT for Radiotherapy Planning
Iodine maps derived from Dual-Energy CT (DECT) provide critical biological information for radiotherapy treatment planning; however, conventional clinical iodine maps often mistakenly include bones due to insufficient X-ray spectral separation. In this study,...
