Evaluation of a cone-beam computed tomography system calibrated for accurate radiotherapy dose calculation

Background and purpose: Dose calculation on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images has been less accurate than on computed tomography (CT) images due to lower image quality and discrepancies in CT numbers for CBCT. As increasing interest arises in offline and online re-planning, dose calculatio...
