Abstract
We analyze by simulation a fully-3-D, low-dose imaging system aiming at assisting external-beam radiotherapy, either for on-board patient imaging, or for real-time radiotherapy monitoring. The system consists in detecting megavoltage patient-scattered radiation that is emitted at right angles with respect to the beam axis. Since photon scattering in the patient occurs with higher intensity in tiss...
