Voxel-Wise Analysis for Spatial Characterisation of Pseudo-CT Errors in MRI-Only Radiotherapy Planning

Several approaches have been proposed to generate pseudo computed tomography (pCT) from MR images for radiotherapy dose calculation. Quantification of errors in pCT has been reported using global scores disregarding spatial heterogeneity. The aim of this work was to propose a population voxel-based workflow allowing the local assessment of errors in the generation of pCTs from MRI. For the voxel-wise analysis to be anatomically meaningful, a...
