Résumé
Justification of imaging procedures such as cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in radiotherapy makes no doubt. However, the CBCT composite dose is rarely reported or optimized, even though the repeated CBCT cumulative dose can be up to 3% of the prescription dose. This study aimed to evaluate the performance and utility of a new plastic scintillating optical fiber dosimeter for CBCT dosimetric quality assurance (QA) applications before a potential application in patient composite CBCT dosimetry.
