Abstract

PURPOSE: This work presents the implementation of an RGB-D camera as a surrogate signal for liver respiratory-induced motion estimation. This study aims to validate the feasibility of RGB-D cameras as a surrogate in a human subject experiment and to compare the performance of different correspondence models.
