Quantification and correction of the scattered X-rays from a megavoltage photon beam to a linac-mounted kilovoltage imaging subsystem

OBJECTIVE: To quantify and correct megavoltage (MV) scattered X-rays (MV-scatter) on an image acquired using a linac-mounted kilovoltage (kV) imaging subsystem. METHODS AND MATERIALS: A linac-mounted flat-panel detector (FPD) was used to acquire an image containing MV-scatter by activating the FPD o...
