Optimal virtual monoenergetic image in “TwinBeam” dual‐energy CT for organs‐at‐risk delineation based on contrast‐noise‐ratio in head‐and‐neck radiotherapy

PURPOSE: Dual‐energy computed tomography (DECT) using TwinBeam CT (TBCT) is a new option for radiation oncology simulators. TBCT scanning provides virtual monoenergetic images which are attractive in treatment planning since lower energies offer better contrast for soft tissues, and higher energies...
