Positioning accuracy and daily dose assessment for prostate cancer treatment using in‐room CT image guidance at a proton therapy facility

Purpose To evaluate the effectiveness of CT image‐guided proton radiotherapy for prostate cancer by analyzing the positioning uncertainty and assessing daily dose change due to anatomical variations. Materials and methods Patients with prostate cancer were treated by opposed lateral proton beams bas...
