Novel artifact‐robust and highly visible zinc solid fiducial marker for kilovoltage x‐ray image‐guided radiation therapy

Purpose To develop a novel biocompatible solid fiducial marker that prevents radiopaque imaging artifacts and also maintains high imaging contrast for kilovoltage x‐ray image‐guided radiation therapy. Methods The fiducial marker was made of pure zinc. An in‐house water‐equivalent phantom was designe...
