    Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include devices, systems, and methods for real time marker less tumor tracking (RMTT). In various embodiments, the RMTT embodiments use positron emission tomography (PET) and time of flight data to determine a 3D position of the tumor. The 3D position of the tumor may be continuously determined multiple times per section during a radiation therapy session to track the position of a moving tumor in real time. The real time tumor tracking data may be used to position a radiation source to deliver radiation directly to the tumor at all times during radiation therapy to improve the effectiveness of radiation treatments.
