I. Introduction Objectives To solve geometric problem(misalignment) in cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) system. To adjust X-ray focal spot using metal-hole phantom and physical center of the detector. Five pin-hole phantoms on detector for geometric alignment between source part and detector part. To obtain the calibration parameters through the difference between reference point and rotation point. II. Materials and Methods Gantry geometric measurement method IV. Conclusions Two-step process for misaligned geometry of CBCT system. The center of the detector was forcibly aligned in order to adjust X- ray focal spot by using metal-hole phantom. The geometric alignment of CBCT system was measured by using the difference between reference point (start point) and each rotation point based on the 2D projection. The X-ray image results of before and after alignment of CBCT system will be analyzed and compared through the proposed method. III.
