A method for compensating for dynamic changes in a body of a patient during a controlled interaction with the body includes acquiring data from at least one sensing device disposed on the body and detecting a change along at least one optical fiber of the sensing device caused by dynamic changes associated with the body during the controlled interaction. A respiratory gating signal is generated based on the change along the at least one optical fiber of the sensing device measured over time. The method further comprises controlling relative movement between the body and an interactive device in response to the respiratory gating signal to compensate for the dynamic changes associated with the body during the controlled interaction.
