Modern tumor tracking systems rely on advanced imaging technologies to deliver real-time accuracy during cancer treatment. These imaging components form the foundation of effective tracking, providing continuous visual or positional data throughout therapy sessions.

One commonly used approach involves image-guided tracking, where frequent imaging captures tumor position during treatment. These images are compared against reference data to identify movement and guide corrective adjustments. High-speed processing ensures minimal delay between detection and response.

Another technique uses implanted markers that serve as reference points. Tracking systems detect these markers and infer tumor position based on their movement. This method provides high precision, particularly in deep or mobile anatomical regions.

Some tumor tracking systems incorporate external sensors that correlate surface motion with internal tumor movement. By analyzing breathing patterns or body motion, these systems predict internal shifts with impressive accuracy.

The integration of imaging data with treatment delivery systems allows for seamless adaptation.…
