چکیده

Medical image registration is time-consuming but can be sped up employing parallel processing on the GPU. Normalized mutual information (NMI) is a well performing similarity measure for performing multi-modal registration. We present CUDA based solutions for computing NMI on the GPU and compare the results obtained by rigidly registering multi-modal data sets with a CPU based implementation. Our tests with RIRE data sets show a speed-up of factor 5 to 7 for our best GPU implementation.

A Novel Subsampling Method for 3D Multimodality Medical Image Registration Based on Mutual Information

Mutual information (MI) is a widely used similarity metric for multimodality image registration. However, it involves an extremely high computational time especially when it is applied to volume images. Moreover, its robustness is affected by existence of local maxima. The multi-resolution pyramid approaches have been proposed to speed up the registration process and increase the accuracy of th...

Voxel similarity based automatic image registration

Description: We proposed a fast, fully automatic registration algorithm that is capable of solving unimodality or multimodality registration problems in 2D or 3D. Many similarity measures were proposed in the past decade. We chose the measures based on the mutual information of the images proposed by Collignon et al. and Viola and Wells, and on the normalized mutual information of the images pr...

Cross Correlation versus Mutual Information for Image Mosaicing

This paper reviews the concept of image mosaicking and presents a comparison between two of the most common image mosaicing techniques. The first technique is based on normalized cross correlation (NCC) for registering overlapping 2D images of a 3D scene. The second is based on mutual information (MI). The experimental results demonstrate that the two techniques have a similar performance in mo...

Optimized co-registration method of Spinal cord MR Neuroimaging data analysis and application for generating multi-parameter maps

Introduction: The purpose of multimodal and co-registration In MR Neuroimaging is to fuse two or more sets images (T1, T2, fMRI, DTI, pMRI, …) for combining the different information into a composite correlated data set in order to visualization, re-alignment and generating transform to functional Matrix. Multimodal registration and motion correction in spinal cord MR Neuroimag...
