Known metadata gaps

Recorded explicitly rather than guessed.

  • checksumSha256 is null: read as full-text XML from Europe PMC (PMCID PMC3549905), not a byte-stable artefact.
  • The paper’s statements about carbon fibre as the couch-top material of choice and about its construction summarise earlier literature not registered in this corpus; its attenuation and skin-dose figures are its own measurements and treatment-planning computations for one couch top.
