چکیده

Deformable registration methods are widely used for the accurate registration of objects with largescale deformation. In this paper, we present a detail review on performance analysis of deformable registration methods. We comprehensively review each registration method and describe its features, advantages, issues and challenges. Deformable registration methods are further quantitatively compared and evaluated based on a set of criteria, which estimate the performance of each method. The performance of registration methods is estimated using root mean square error (RMS), mutual information (MI), computational time complexity and memory requirement. It is found in our analysis that every registration method has its own strength to register deformable objects. However, due to large-scale variations in deformable objects most of the registration methods are not still a perfect choice in clinical applications. Therefore, advanced and powerful registration methods are needed to develop in future, which can precisely, efficiently, and automatically register medical images with large-scale deformations.

Evaluation of deformable image registration in HDR gynecological brachytherapy

Introduction: In brachytherapy, as in external radiotherapy, image-guidance plays an important role. For GYN treatments it is standard to acquire at least CT images and preferably MR images prior to each treatment and to calculate the dose of the day on each set of images. Then, the dose to the target and to the organs at risk (OAR) is calculated with worst case scenario from I...

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...

Contourlet-Based Edge Extraction for Image Registration

Image registration is a crucial step in most image processing tasks for which the final result is achieved from a combination of various resources. In general, the majority of registration methods consist of the following four steps: feature extraction, feature matching, transform modeling, and finally image resampling. As the accuracy of a registration process is highly dependent to the fe...
