“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] In recent years, non-circular scan orbits have been increasingly investigated for potential benefits such as increased field of view (FOV), [9][10][11][12] improved image quality and/or dose reduction, 7,[12][13][14][15] collision avoidance, 14,16 accom-modating upright patient positions [17][18][19] and reduced metal artifacts. 10,[20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] While studies have demonstrated sufficient reproducibility for standard circular scanning orbits, [29][30][31][32] current implementations of non-circular orbits often result in a less predictable geometry due to factors such as gantry jitters, sagging, and manual data acquisition, and so forth. 8,12,[24][25][26][27]33,34 Since an accurate CBCT geometry is critical for the image quality of 3D reconstructions, we require a geometric calibration method that can address these challenges in practical implementations of non-circular or...…”
