      It’s not easy, as it requires lots of different types of data taken with different scanners and cameras that all have to work together.

      The trick is to use maths and statistics to build a “breathing motion model” which tells the program where the patient’s organs are based on the video of their chest moving.

      This is something I’ve been working on or nearly 2 years and I still have lots of work to go.
