General description of an on-line procedure of calibration for IGRT (image guided radiotherapy) is given. The algorithm allows to improve targeting cancer by estimating its position in space and suggesting appropriate correction of the position of the patient. The description is given in the Geometric Algebra language which significantly simplifies calculations and clarifies presentation.
Research was done during realization of a large scale, multidisciplinary scientific project. The calibration of mechanical devices used in medicine is closely related to the scientific discipline of Mechanical Engineering.
