Abstract
The respiration is one of important factor in the radiation therapy. The existing commercial method of cone-beam computed tomography on LINAC does not consider respiratory motion of patient hence the images are both distorted and inaccurate. In this study, the cone-beam computed tomography images have been reconstructed from back projection radiography of specific phase on breathing cycle which concerned about respiratory movement in radiation therapy. This study investigated how different between cone-beam CT images with and without gating respiratory movement, and this paper provides that guide and implementation of gated cone-beam CT on radiation therapeutic equipment.
