Landmark-Based Registration Using a Local Radial Basis Function Transformation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we propose the use of a local image transformation involving radial basis functions for landmark-based registration of medical images. More precisely, we consider radial basis functions as nodal functions in the modified Shepard method. In this way we obtain an image transformation more accurate and stable than the one given by the global radial basis functions, as shown by numerical results. c ⃝ 2011 European Society of Computational Methods in Sciences and Engineering

Analysis of Compactly Supported Transformations for Landmark-based Image Registration
In this paper we consider landmark-based image registration using radial basis function interpolation schemes. More precisely, we analyze some landmark-based image transformations using compactly supported radial basis functions such as Wendland’s, Wu’s, and Gneiting’s functions. Comparisons of interpolation techniques are performed and numerical experiments show differences in accuracy and smo...
متن کاملPerformance Analysis of a Compact Support Radial Basis Function Based on Thin-Plate Splines
In landmark-based registration, radial basis function-based transformation play an important role. The compact support radial basis function based on thin-plate splines (CSTPS) is an effective function which has been used to perform interpolation in elastic registration of medical images. In this paper, the positive definite property of CSTPS is theoretically proved. Thus, the solvability of th...
متن کاملComputing Topology Preservation of RBF Transformations for Landmark-Based Image Registration
In image registration, a proper transformation should be topology preserving. Especially for landmark-based image registration, if the displacement of one landmark is larger enough than those of neighbourhood landmarks, topology violation will be occurred. This paper aim to analyse the topology preservation of some Radial Basis Functions (RBFs) which are used to model deformations in image regi...
متن کاملNonrigid mammogram registration using mutual information
Of the papers dealing with the task of mammogram registration, the majority deal with the task by matching corresponding control-points derived from anatomical landmark points. One of the caveats encountered when using pure point-matching techniques is their reliance on accurately extracted anatomical features-points. This paper proposes an innovative approach to matching mammograms which combi...
متن کاملElastic Registration of Medical Images Using Radial Basis Functions with Compact Support
We introduce radial basis functions with compact support for elastic registration of medical images. With these basis functions the influence of a landmark on the registration result is limited to a circle in 2D and, respectively, to a sphere in 3D. Therefore, the registration can be locally constrained which especially allows to deal with rather local changes in medical images due to, e.g., tu...
