Abstract

See full text

A method, apparatus and computer-readable medium for avoiding collisions between a subject and a radiotherapy device are provided. At a first time point, first location information for the subject is measured using a first sensor and a second sensor. A spatial profile of the subject is determined based on the first location information. At a second time point, second location information for the subject is measured using the first sensor. At this second time point, a line of sight between the second sensor and the subject is obscured. It is determined whether a collision is expected to occur between the subject and the radiotherapy device based on the spatial profile and the second location information.
