Changes in ct scan protocols significantly affected the treatment planning outcomes for carbon ion radiotherapy.
The largest variation in ct values was over 200 HU between protocols, impacting doses in treatment plans.
Gamma analysis showed that a 3%/3mm tolerance achieved nearly 100% pass rate for both ct scan protocols tested.
Mean differences in dvh parameters for pelvic region plans remained low, while head and neck regions exhibited variations up to 6.17%.
