For robust and high-quality brain imaging rigid body motion correction plays an increasingly important role.

We propose a wireless motion tracking method based on short-wave RF signal transmission that does not require a direct line of sight and can penetrate tissue and plastics between detector and marker providing a unprecedented degree of freedom in marker placement and fixation. Single digit micrometer precision during an EPI sequence could be demonstrated even at high tracking bandwidth of 100 Hz with minimal latency and operating independently from the scanner.
