The purpose of this paper is to present a survey of recent (published in 1993 or later)
publications concerning medical image registration techniques. These publications will be …

In recent years, there has been increasing interest in studies of brain plasticity. Although still
loosely defined, this term describes the ability of the brain to change. Cortical plasticity …

Purpose We sought to describe and validate an automated image registration method (AIR
3.0) based on matching of voxel intensities. Method Different cost functions, different …

Over the last five years, new “voxel-based” approaches have allowed important progress in
multimodal image registration, notably due to the increasing use of information-theoretic …

OBJECTIVE: Several causes of spatial inaccuracies in image-guided surgery have been
carefully studied and documented for several systems. These include error in identifying the …

Most previously reported registration techniques that align three-dimensional image
volumes by matching geometrical features such as points or surfaces use a single type of …

All image-guided neurosurgical systems that the authors are aware of assume that the head
and its contents behave as a rigid body. It is important to measure intraoperative brain …

Automated multi-modality 3D medical image alignment has been an active area of research
for many years. There have been a number of recent papers proposing and investigating the …

In a previous study (JB West et al., J. Comput. Assist. Tomogr., vol. 21, p. 554-66, 1997) the
authors demonstrated that automatic retrospective registration algorithms can frequently …

The registration of multimodal medical images is an important tool in surgical applications,
since different scan modalities highlight complementary anatomical structures. We present a …
