This article presents a general procedural framework to assess the point-by-point precision in mapped dose associated with intrinsic uncertainty of deformable image registration (DIR) for any arbitrary patient.Dose is obtained via three-step process. In first step, each voxel an imaging pair, cluster points by iterative DIR procedure. second dispersion due imprecision method used compute spatial uncertainty. Two different ways quantify are presented this work. Method A consists...
