Practical considerations in the calibration of CT scanners for proton therapy
Treatment planning systems for proton therapy require a CT calibration curve relating Hounsfield units to proton stopping powers. An understanding of the accuracy of this curve, together with its limitations, is of utmost importance because the calibration underpins the calculated dose distribution...
