Abstract
A patient movement system is used to detect movement of the patient in multiple of different coordinates. The movement of the patient is obtained in real-time and correlated to times of medical images, and used to compensate those medical images for the actual patient movement. This can be used in place of post processing algorithms which do not have actual medical information.
