Abstract

A computer-implemented method for a radiation therapy system includes: acquiring a first X-ray image of a region while the region is in a first location, the gantry is in a first imaging position, and a center axis of an imaging beam passes through an isocenter of the radiation therapy system along a first imaging path; acquiring a second X-ray image of the region while the region of patient anatomy is in the first location, the gantry is in a second imaging position, and the center axis of the imaging beam passes through the isocenter along a second imaging path, wherein an angle between the first imaging path and the second imaging path is a non-orthogonal angle; and based on the first X-ray image, the second X-ray image, and a three-dimensional treatment planning image of the region, determining an offset between a planning location for the region and the first location.
