Abstract
An apparatus for positioning a medical object includes a moving apparatus for robotically moving the medical object. The medical object includes a predefined section. The predefined section is at least partially arranged in an examination object. The apparatus is configured to receive a control specification. The moving apparatus is configured to position the predefined section based on the control specification. The apparatus is further configured to receive positioning information on the predefined section and determine a degree of deviation. The degree of deviation describes a deviation between the control specification and the positioning information. The apparatus is configured to determine a correction specification for minimizing the deviation based on the degree of deviation. The moving apparatus is further configured to reposition the predefined section based on the correction specification.
