Evaluation of the effect of mechanical deformation on beam isocenter properties of the SC200 scanning beam delivery system

For proton pencil beam scanning (PBS) technology, the accuracy of the dose distribution in a patient is sensitive to the properties of the incident beam. However, mechanical deformation of the proton therapy facility may occur, and this could be an important factor affecting the proton dose distribu...
