Abstract
An apparatus includes a positioning system and a patient reference sensor (PRS). The positioning system acquires a plurality of raw PRS readings over time, which can indicate the position and orientation of the PRS. A filter is configured to process the raw PRS readings and output filtered PRS readings. The filter outputs filtered PRS readings as a baseline value while the raw PRS readings stay within a predetermined range and output filtered PRS readings as unchanged raw PRS readings when the raw PRS readings reach or vary outside of the predetermined range. A motion compensation function generated based on at least the filtered PRS readings can be used to correct a subject position and orientation (P&O) to compensate for the motion of the moving region of interest over time.
