Evaluation of the dose variation for prostate heavy charged particle therapy using four-dimensional computed tomography

We quantified dose variation effects due to respiratory-induced intrafractional motion in conventional carbon-ion prostate treatment by using four-dimensional computed tomography (4DCT). 4DCT scans of 20 patients were acquired under free-breathing conditions using a 256 multi-slice CT scanner. The c...
