The influence of the patient size and geometry on cone beam-computed tomography hounsfield unit

The objective of this work is to study the influence of the patient size and geometry on CBCT Hounsfield Unit and the accuracy of calibration Hounsfield Unit to electron density (HU-ED) using patient specific HU-ED mapping method for dose calculation. Two clinical cases, namely nasopharyngeal carcin...
