Case Report: Cumulative proton dose reconstruction using CBCT-based synthetic CT for interfraction metallic port variability in breast tissue expanders

IntroductionDose perturbation of spot-scanning proton beams passing through a dislocated metallic port (MP) of a breast tissue expander may degrade target dose coverage or deliver excess dose to the ipsilateral lung and heart. The feasibility of utilizing daily cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT)–b...
