Summary
PROJECT SUMMARY Even though cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is the most commonly used volumetric image guidance modality, its role has been severely limited in the context of treatment monitoring and patient-specific treatment modifications in radiation therapy. Due to CBCT’s poor image quality, clinicians cannot clearly visualize soft tissues to assess anatomical changes, thus affecting their clinical decision-making. Moreover, tools for treatment monitoring, such as deformable registration and dose calculation, do not function robustly with today’s CBCT images due to the lack of CT num
