displaying the virtual representation of the at least part of the subject at the preset position and superimposing the virtual representation on the subject to mimic the at least part of the subject that is inside the subject;
obtaining a second 3D surface image of the at least part of the subject when the subject is located at a candidate position; and
determining, based on the displayed virtual representation of the at least part of the subject or the first 3D surface image and the second 3D surface image, whether the candidate position of the subject meets the requirement of a target position of the subject.
