Method and system for radiation application
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for gating an application of radiation to a patient, comprising:
- directing a camera at a patient;
generating image data representative of a position of the patient associated with a physiological movement of the patient;
obtaining an amplitude value and a phase value based at least in part on the image data;
combining the amplitude value and the phase value to form a vector;
performing an analysis using the vector; and
gating an application of radiation to the patient based upon a result from the act of performing the analysis.

Abstract
A method for generating one or more images includes collecting data samples representative of a motion of an object, acquiring image data of at least a part of the object over a time interval, synchronizing the data samples and the image data to a common time base, and generating one or more images based on the synchronized image data. A method for generating one or more images includes acquiring image data of at least a part of an object over a time interval, associating the image data with one or more phases of a motion cycle, and constructing one or more images using the image data that are associated with the respective one or more phases.
