Data filtering is crucial for accurate relative stopping power (RSP) reconstruction in proton CT (pCT). In this work, we assess different filters and their performance for the US pCT collaboration prototype pCT system in Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. The potential of using the recently proposed-E filter for removing nuclear interactions that occurred in the energy/range detector of the pCT system is investigated.
