CT Simulator

This document discusses CT simulation which involves CT scanning patients in treatment positions, planning radiation therapy treatments using the CT images, and setting up patients accurately for treatment. It describes the components of a CT simulator including the X-ray tube, collimator, table, computer, and lasers. It also covers CT performance parameters, quality assurance tests for CT simulators, and evaluating digitally reconstructed radiographs.
