Optimization of dual‐energy CT acquisitions for proton therapy using projection‐based decomposition

Purpose Dual‐energy computed tomography (DECT) has been presented as a valid alternative to single‐energy CT to reduce the uncertainty of the conversion of patient CT numbers to proton stopping power ratio (SPR) of tissues relative to water. The aim of this work was to optimize DECT acquisition prot...
