Performance validation of deformable image registration in the pelvic region
Patients undergoing radiotherapy will inevitably show anatomical changes during the course of treatment. These can be weight loss, tumour shrinkage, and organ motion or filling changes. For advanced and adaptive radiotherapy (ART) information about anatomical changes must be extracted from repeated images in order to be able to evaluate and manage these changes. Deformable image registration (D...
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 کاملValidation of three deformable image registration algorithms for the thorax
Deformable image registration (DIR) has been proposed for lung ventilation calculation using 4D CT. Spatial accuracy of DIR can be evaluated using expert landmark correspondences. Additionally, image differences between the deformed and the target images give a degree of accuracy of DIR algorithms for the same image modality registration. DIR of the normal end-expiration (50%), end-inspiration ...
متن کاملPhysically-Based Validation of Deformable Medical Image Registration
We propose a new approach for validating deformable image registration algorithms. Since difference images do not necessarily reflect the 3D correspondence of organs, we propose to use the deformation fields generated in our FEM-based simulations to assess the displacement resulted from other registration methods. Unlike traditional FEM-based registration methods, the boundary condition for the...
متن کاملEvaluation of Deformable Image Registration
Deformable image registration (DIR) is a type of registration that calculates a deformable vector field (DVF) between two image data sets and permits contour and dose propagation. However the calculation of a DVF is considered an ill-posed problem, as there is no exact solution to a deformation problem, therefore all DVFs calculated contain errors. As a result it is important to evaluate and as...
