Characterization of a prototype rapid kilovoltage x‐ray image guidance system designed for a ring shape radiation therapy unit

Purpose This study aims to characterize the performance of a prototype rapid kilovoltage (kV) x‐ray image guidance system onboard the newly released Halcyon 2.0 linear accelerator (Varian Medical Systems, Palo Alto, CA) by use of conventional and innovatively designed testing procedures. Methods Bas...
