Comparison of single and dual energy CT for stopping power determination in proton therapy of head and neck cancer

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Patients with head and neck (HN) cancer may benefit from proton therapy due to the potential for sparing of normal tissue. For planning of proton therapy, dual-energy CT (DECT) has been shown to provide superior stopping power ratio (SPR) determination in phantom materials an...
