Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a patient motion tracking system for automatic generation of a region of interest on a 3D surface of a patient positioned in a radiotherapy treatment room. More particularly, the disclosure relates to an assistive approach of a motion tracking system, by which a region of interest (ROI) is automatically generated on a generated 3D surface of the patient. Furthermore, a method for automatically generating a ROI on the 3D surface of the patient is described. In particular, all the embodiments refer to systems integrating methods for automatic ROI generation in a radiotherapy treatment setup.
