Effect of patient size on image quality in radiotherapy kV planar verification imaging: a phantom study
Abstract Introduction This study aimed to determine a maximal pelvic separation and waist circumference in pelvic patients to guide radiation therapists in acquiring kilovoltage (kV) planar images of acceptable quality for treatment verification. Methods A pelvic anthropomorphic phantom modified wit...
