Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods for detecting motion of soft tissue are provided. An illustrative method is described to include attaching a flexible material to an object, where the flexible material includes one or more tracking markers distributed thereon and where the object includes soft tissue. The method is also disclosed to include obtaining a first image of the object that includes the one or more tracking markers in a first position, obtaining a second image of the object that includes the one or more tracking markers in a second position, and determining a motion of the soft tissue based on a comparison of the one or more tracking markers in the first position with the one or more tracking markers in the second position.
