Background and Purpose: The range uncertainty in particle therapy should be reduced to prevent healthy tissues being damaged during radiation therapy. Here, the HU to Stopping Power Ratio (SPR) conversion range uncertainty was accessed by using different stoichiometric calibration methods to find ou...
