摘要：
The present invention relates to an object tracking device for a medical imaging system to track a predetermined movable object. The predetermined movable object may be a medical instrument and/or a patient. The object tracking device comprises a primary imaging unit and a secondary imaging unit. The primary imaging unit is configured to provide first image data of a patient's body. It might further be configured to provide image data of the interior of a patient's body. The primary imaging unit is movable between an imaging mode and a parking mode. The secondary imaging unit is configured to provide second image data of a patient's body. It might further be configured to provide image data of the exterior of a patient's body. The object tracking device further comprises a position monitoring arrangement configured to monitor a position of the secondary imaging unit relative to the position of a reference point. As a result, the medical instrument and/or the patient is traceable in the imaging mode based on the image data of the primary imaging unit, and in the parking mode based on the image data of the secondary imaging unit.
