Such artifacts caused by a metal case of cardiac devices. The purpose of the research was to apply the artifacts reduction method in order to provide qualitative irradiation planning as well as accurately calculate the dose in the devices. The results obtained in this work are essential for radiological physicists to avoid cardiac devices being damaged during radiotherapy.Keywords: Artifacts reduction, radiation therapy, implantable device ER -
