Despite the well‐known benefits of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in lung
cancer diagnosis and staging, the poor spatial resolution of PET has limited its use in …

A novel method for quality assessment in medical image registration is presented. It is
evaluated on 24 follow-up CT scan pairs of the lung. Based on a reference standard of …

摘要针对单一特征引导图像配准的准确度有限性, 提出了一种同时使用轮廓与特征点的医学图像
弹性配准方法. 半自动的特征点提取方法既可以保证提取的精确性又能够避免繁琐的特征点对应 …

This paper proposes a local registration approach of medical images with niche genetic
algorithm. In our approach, the deformation function is obtained by interpolating discrete …

We are developing a system for patient management in colorectal cancer, in which the need
for segmentation and non-rigid registration of pre-and post-therapy images arises. Several …

Different imaging modalities or protocols of a single patient may convey different types of
information regarding a disease for the same anatomical organ/tissue. On the other hand …

Mutual information (MI)-based registration, which uses MI as the similarity measure, is a
representative method in medical image registration. It has an excellent robustness and …

Volume registration of articulated subjects such as the human knee region requires novel
methods to accommodate the wide range of movement resulting from skeletal joint rotations …

We introduce a new hybrid physics-based approach for elastic image registration using
approximating splines. As underlying deformation model we employ Gaussian elastic body …

Non-rigid image registration is an important preprocessing step in many medical image
applications, but it is also a very computation intensive task. In this paper, a fast adaptive …
