Definitions of the truncation percentages. Left: in the truncation simulation stage, the percentage of truncation is calculated by the ratio between the radius of the truncated FOV r′ and the radius of the non-truncated FOV r; Right: in the evaluation stage, for a given truncation level, the degree of truncation to the patient volume is calculated by the ratio between the truncated volume t′ and the entire patient volume V.
