Automatic measurement of air gap for proton therapy using orthogonal x‐ray imaging with radiopaque wires

PURPOSE: The main objective of this study was to develop a technique to accurately determine the air gap between the end of the proton beam compensator and the body of the patient in proton radiotherapy. METHODS: Orthogonal x‐ray image‐based automatic coordinate reconstruction was used to determine...
