Highly efficient and sensitive patient-specific quality assurance for spot-scanned proton therapy.
The purpose of this work was to develop an end-to-end patient-specific quality assurance (QA) technique for spot-scanned proton therapy that is more sensitive and efficient than traditional approaches. The patient-specific methodology relies on independently verifying the accuracy of the delivered p...
