A system and method for identifying and processing individual patients among a set of patients includes storing position data representative of patient-unique arrangements of targets that are affixed to the patients for aligning a therapeutic radiation beam. Subsequent to the recording of the position data, a particular patient and/or the medical information of the particular patient can be identified by reimaging the targets or substitute targets on the particular patient to detect a correlation between the image data and the stored position data. The correlation may be used to register a patient, track the location of the patient within a multi-station facility, or facilitate treatment setup, such as beam-to-patient alignment, radiation configuration, and beam control.
