Methods Seven NPC patients were selected. The kV-CBCT images for each patient were acquired on the first treatment day. Two correction strategies were used to generate the cone beam HU value vs relative electron density calibration tables which named CIRS062 phantom based HU-RED tables and patient specific HU-RED tables respectively for dose calculation. The dose distributions and dose volume histograms (DVHs) of the target and organs at risk (OAR) based on kV-CBCT images were compared to the plans based on the fan-beam CT (FBCT). Results The DVH and dose distribution comparison between plans based on the FBCT and those on the CBCT showed good agreements. The γ analysis with a criterion of 2 mm/2% was used for the comparison of dose distribution at the coronal plane, sagital plane and cross plane through the isocenter point. The passing rate from phantom based HU-RED tables were (92.7±3.5) %, (95.1±3.1) %, and (95.7±3.4)%, respectively. The passing rates from the patient specific HU-RED tables were (94.8±2.7) %, (96.6±2.9) %, and (97.4±2.7) %, respectively. The dose difference between plans based on CBCT and those based on FBCT was within 2% at most patients by analyzing DVH based parameters. Only one patient who had significant rotation setup error resulted in the low passing rate and disagreement in DVH. Conclusion The CBCT images can be used to do dose calculation in IMRT planning of NPC. The differences between plans based on HU-RED tables generated by specific patient and the original plans are less than those between plans based on CIRS062 phantom based HU-RED tables and the original plans.
