The fast calibration model for dosimetry with an electronic portal imaging device
AbstractPurposeThe aim of this study was to develop an algorithm that corrects the image of an electronic portal imaging device (EPID) of a linear accelerator so that it can be used for dosimetric purposes, such as in vivo dosimetry or quality assurance for photon radiotherapy.
