Deformable Image Registration using Spring Mass System
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper describes a novel multi-resolution registration method. It is fast, robust and offers high registration accuracy. The algorithm models deformations using an elastic spring mass system, which contains sparse masses interconnected by springs. The proposed method uses data intensity values to guide deformation with local constraints imposed by interaction of interconnecting springs. Moreover, by using such system prior information about the data can by easily embedded into the system to improve the registration accuracy. The performance of the method is tested using simulated as well as real dynamic magnetic resonance image dMRI data.

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 کاملModified mass-spring system for physically based deformation modeling
Mass-spring systems are considered the simplest and most intuitive of all deformable models. They are computationally efficient, and can handle large deformations with ease. But they suffer several intrinsic limitations like the difficulties in controlling anisotropy, springs functions para-meterization and enforcing volume preservation. As part of this project, a modified mass-spring system th...
متن کاملElastic image matching with embedded rigid structures using spring-mass system
The paper presents a novel elastic image-matching algorithm, which is capable of treating some pre-selected parts of an image as rigid objects, while remainder of the image can be elastically deformed. The proposed method uses a spring-mass system to model deformations caused by displacement of the rigid objects and/or pre-selected feature landmarks. The proposed method gives more control over ...
متن کاملDeformable Registration of Brain Tumor Images Via a Statistical Model of Tumor-Induced Deformation
An approach to the deformable registration of three-dimensional brain tumor images to a normal brain atlas is presented. The approach involves the integration of three components: a biomechanical model of tumor mass-effect, a statistical approach to estimate the model's parameters, and a deformable image registration method. Statistical properties of the sought deformation map from the atlas to...
