One or more techniques are provided for identifying a period of minimal
motion for an organ of interest, such as the heart or lungs. Motion data
is acquired for the organ of interest and for one or more proximate
organs using sensor-based and/or image-based techniques. The sensor-based
techniques may include electrical and non-electrical techniques. The
image-based techniques may include both pre-acquisition and acquisition
image data. The motion data for the organ of interest and proximate
organs may be used to generate a set of multi-input motion data that may
be processed to identify desired periods, such as periods of minimal
motion, within the overall motion of the organ of interest.
