Dosimetric impact of stopping power for human bone porosity with dual-energy computed tomography in scanned carbon-ion therapy treatment planning

Dosimetric impact of stopping power for human bone porosity with dual-energy computed tomography in scanned carbon-ion therapy treatment planning

Abstract Few reports have documented how the accuracy of stopping power ratio (SPR) prediction for porous bone tissue affects the dose distribution of scanned carbon-ion beam therapy. The estimated SPR based on single-energy computed tomography (SECT) and dual-energy CT (DECT) were compared for the...
