Proton dose perturbations caused by high‐voltage leads from implanted cardioverter defibrillators

An increasing number of patients undergoing proton radiotherapy have cardiac implantable electrical devices (CIEDs). We recently encountered a situation in which a high‐voltage coil on a lead from an implanted cardiac defibrillator was located within the clinical treatment volume for a patient recei...
