14. A device for calibrating tracking systems in imaging systems, in MRT, in IMRT or in CT, the device comprising:
-
a tracking system having a coordinate system; at least one imaging system; and at least one first marker that is stationary relative to said imaging system to constitute a reference marker having a position and orientation that are calibrated in a coordinate system of said imaging system. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
