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...
متن کاملRegistration of MR/MR and MR/SPECT brain images by fast stochastic optimization of robust voxel similarity measures.
This paper describes a robust, fully automated algorithm to register intrasubject 3D single and multimodal images of the human brain. The proposed technique accounts for the major limitations of the existing voxel similarity-based methods: sensitivity of the registration to local minima of the similarity function and inability to cope with gross dissimilarities in the two images to be registere...
متن کاملVoxel 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...
متن کاملNon-rigid image registration of brain magnetic resonance images using graph-cuts
We present a graph-cuts basedmethod for non-rigid medical image registration on brain magnetic resonance images. In this paper, the non-rigid medical image registration problem is reformulated as a discrete labeling problem. Based on a voxel-to-voxel intensity similarity measure, each voxel in the source image is assigned a displacement label, which represents a displacement vector indicating w...
متن کاملAn Algorithm for 3D Registration of Multi-Modality Medical Images by Use of Voxel-Similarity-Based Measures
0. Abstract This report describes work done within a practical training at the Philips Research Laboratories / Technical Systems Hamburg in 1995. My work was concerned with the development and implementation of a completely automatic image registration algorithm that uses a voxel-similarity-based measure as matching criterion. Both singleand multi-modality 3D medical images can be processed. Fu...
