The purpose of this study is to determine the effective energy of CT X-ray beams by using the CT slice images of a CT number calibration insert part in the AAPM CT performance phantom. The CT number calibration insert part in the AAPM CT performance phantom was scanned five times by using a CT canner for 80, 100 and 120 kVp X-ray beams. The average value of CT numbers of each pin were measured for each CT slice image. The correlation coefficients were obtained by linear fit between the average value of CT numbers measured and liner attenuation coefficient under different energy at each pin calculated from data of NIST. A photon energy corresponding to the maximum value of the obtained correlation coefficient was determined as an effective energy. As a result, the effective energy was 56, 62 and 66~67 keV, respectively, for 80, 100 and 120 kVp X-ray beams.
