Robust multiresolution alignment of MRI brain volumes.
An algorithm for the automatic alignment of MRI volumes of the human brain was developed, based on techniques adopted from the computer vision literature for image motion estimation. Most image registration techniques rely on the assumption that corresponding voxels in the two volumes have equal intensity, which is not true for MRI volumes acquired with different coils and/or pulse sequences. I...
متن کاملSemantic Assisted, Multiresolution Image Retrieval in 3D Brain MR Volumes
Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is an important research area in the field of multimedia information retrieval. The application of CBIR in the medical domain has been attempted before, however the use of CBIR in medical diagnostics is a daunting task. The goal of diagnostic medical image retrieval is to provide diagnostic support by displaying relevant past cases, along with proven patholo...
متن کاملThe Use of Robust Local Hausdorff Distances in Accuracy Assessment for Image Alignment of Brain MRI
We present and implement an error estimation protocol in the Insight Toolkit (ITK) for assessing the accuracy of image alignment. We base this error estimation on a robust version of the Hausdorff Distance (HD) metric applied to the recovered edges of the images. The robust modifications we introduce to the HD metric significantly reduce the amount of outliers in the local distance error estima...
متن کاملEvaluation of Brain MRI Alignment with the Robust Hausdorff Distance Measures
We present a novel automated method for assessment of image alignment, applied to non-rigid registration of brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging data (MRI) for image-guided neurosurgery. We propose a number of robust modifications to the Hausdorff distance (HD) metric, and apply it to the edges recovered from the brain MRI to evaluate the accuracy of image alignment. The evaluation results on synth...
متن کاملMultiresolution Surface Representation Based on Displacement Volumes
We propose a new representation for multiresolution models which uses volume elements enclosed between the different resolution levels to encode the detail information. Keeping these displacement volumes locally constant during a deformation of the base surface leads to a natural behaviour of the detail features. The corresponding reconstruction operator can be implemented efficiently by a hier...
