Image Registration Improves Confidence and Accuracy of Image Interpretation
Introduction Sequential MR examinations of the brain are the primary method for clinical as well as research assessment of the effects of therapy on brain tumors. In clinical practice, visual comparison is the primary method of assessing changes that indicate tumor response or progression. This is a labor-intensive process involving visual search for changes between examinations on multiple ima...
متن کاملContourlet-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...
متن کاملEvaluation 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...
متن کاملSoftware for image registration: algorithms, accuracy, efficacy.
Image registration is finding increased clinical use both in aiding diagnosis and guiding therapy. There are numerous algorithms for registration, which all involve maximizing a measure of similarity between a transformed floating image and a fixed reference image. The choice of the similarity measure depends, to some extent, on the application. Methods based on the use of the joint intensity h...
متن کاملSurface reconstruction of detect contours for medical image registration purpose
Although, most of the abnormal structures of human brain do not alter the shape of outer envelope of brain (surface), some abnormalities can deform the surface extensively. However, this may be a major problem in a surface-based registration technique, since two nearly identical surfaces are required for surface fitting process. A type of verification known as the circularity check for th...
