Increased beam attenuation and surface dose by different couch inserts of treatment tables used in megavoltage radiotherapy

The use of solid carbon fiber table materials in radiotherapy has become more common with the implementation of image‐guided radiotherapy (IGRT), since the solid materials give less imaging artifacts than the so‐called tennis racket couchtops. The downside of the solid carbon fiber couch inserts is...
