Abstract
In respiratory motion modeling for liver interventions, the respiratory signal is usually obtained by using special tracking devices to monitor external skin. However, due to intrinsic limits and cost consideration of these tracking devices, a purely ultrasound image-based approach to tracking the signal is a more feasible option.Keywords
