A quality assurance tool for helical tomotherapy using a step‐wedge phantom and the on‐board MVCT detector

The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate filmless quality assurance (QA) tools for helical tomotherapy by using the signals from the on‐board megavoltage computed tomography (MVCT) detector and applying a dedicated step‐wedge phantom. The step‐wedge phantom is a 15 cm long step‐like alu...
