Impact of beam‐hardening corrections on proton relative stopping power estimates from single‐ and dual‐energy CT

A major contributing factor to proton range uncertainty is the conversion of computed tomography (CT) Hounsfield units (HU) to proton relative stopping power (RSP). This uncertainty is heightened in the presence of X‐ray beam‐hardening artifact (BHA), which has two manifestations: cupping and streak...
