Clinical evaluation of synthetic computed tomography methods in adaptive proton therapy of lung cancer patients

Clinical evaluation of synthetic computed tomography methods in adaptive proton therapy of lung cancer patients

Background and purpose: Efficient workflows for adaptive proton therapy are of high importance. This study evaluated the possibility to replace repeat-CTs (reCTs) with synthetic CTs (sCTs), created based on cone-beam CTs (CBCTs), for flagging the need of plan adaptations in intensity-modulated proto...
