Investigating treatment dose error due to beam attenuation by a carbon fiber tabletop

Carbon fiber is commonly used in radiation therapy for treatment tabletops and various immobilization and support devices, partially because it is generally perceived to be almost radiotransparent to high‐energy photons. To avoid exposure to normal tissue during modern radiation therapy, one must de...
