Optimizing 3DCT image registration for interfractional changes in carbon-ion prostate radiotherapy

Abstract To perform setup procedures including both positional and dosimetric information, we developed a CT–CT rigid image registration algorithm utilizing water equivalent pathlength (WEPL)-based image registration and compared the resulting dose distribution with those of two other algorithms, in...
