Abstract
A treating system includes a controller and a treating device having a treating unit for treating a part of a body of a subject. An imaging arrangement is configured to obtain image data. The controller is configured to analyze the image data to identify a boundary between the part of the body of the subject and the environment around the part of the body; and determine the position of the treating device relative to the part of the body of the subject based on a position of the boundary in the image data.
