The influence of different kVs and phantoms on computed tomography number to relative electron density calibration curve for radiotherapy dose calculation

Abstract Objective This study was carried out to analyze the effect of varying kilovoltage peak (kVp) on Hounsfield unit (HU) for various tissue substitutes in two different phantoms and their dosimetric impact on dose calculation in Monaco treatment planning system version 5.11.02. Methods HU for d...
