Zusammenfassung:A radiotherapy device is disclosed. The radiotherapy device includes a radiation source, a detecting means and controller communicatively coupled to the radiation source and the detecting means. The radiation source is configured to generate a treatment beam for irradiating a subject. The detecting means is configured to detect a motion of the subject, the motion comprising a first physiological motion component and a second physiological motion component. The controller is configured to generate a beam shaping control signal based on the first physiological motion component and to generate a beam gating control signal based on the second physiological motion component
