Abstract:Purpose: The jaw size for the TomoTherapy Hi‐Art II (TomoTherapy Inc., Madison, WI) was reduced from 4 mm (J4) to 1 mm (J1) to improve the longitudinal resolution in megavoltage computed tomography (MVCT) images. This study evaluated the effect of jaw size on the image quality and dose, as well as the dose delivered to the lens of the eye. Methods: MVCT image quality (image noise, uniformity, contrast linearity, high‐contrast resolution, and full width at half‐maximum) and multiple scan average dose (MSAD) wer… Show more
