Evaluation of metallic implant artifact on photon beam calculation algorithms using a CIRS thorax phantom
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of metallic artifact on radiation dose calculations for patients with metallic implants and to find ways in reducing the errors associated with actual dose delivered. The error margin in dose calculations using two different treatment planning system...
