هدف: با توجه به اهمیت همسانی اعداد CT در برنامه‌های تشخیصی و درمان‌های رادیوتراپی سرطان، در این پژوهش عوامل موثر در میزان تغییرات اعداد هانسفیلد در اسکنرهای مختلف CT بررسی شده است تا جهت ارائه راهکارهای بهتر عملکردی در زمینه کالیبراسیون CT به منظور بهبود کیفیت سیستم‌های کاربردی تشخیصی و درمانی و تاکید بر دقت و کنترل خطاهای حاصل از محاسبه دزهای برنامه‌ریزهای درمان مفید واقع گردد.مواد و روش‌ها: داده‌های این پژوهش شامل اطلاعات کالیبراسیون دستگاه‌های سی تی در 10 مرکز مختلف کشور مستخرج از لیست‌های آزمون‌های کنترل کیفیت منتخب و مورد تأیید سازمان انرژی اتمی کشور بوده که صحّت عدد سی تی در آزمون‌های اجرا شده مورد بررسی و تحلیل قرار گرفت.نتایج: ایجاد خطا و تغییر اعداد سی تی موجب تغییر در منحنی چگالی الکترونی عدد سی تی شده و نهایتاً در طراحی درمان و دز دریافتی بیمار اثر می‌گذارد.نتیجه‌گیری: می‌توان با ارزیابی عوامل موثر بر خطای حاصل از روش سیستم طراحی درمان در تبدیل اعداد سی تی به دانسیته الکترونی بافت‌های نرم، میزان خطا را به حداقل رساند.
