Combining X-ray and External Respiratory Signals for Real-Time Target Position Estimation

Stanford Reference:

07-063

Abstract

Applications

• To develop an algorithm to combine x-ray and external respiratory monitoring sources for estimating real-time target position.

Advantages

• No current system exists in radiotherapy to estimate internal position from a single x-ray imager and an optical system.
