Image registration using the Morphon algorithm: an ITK implementation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Medical image registration is becoming a more and more useful component of a large number of applications. The presented method aims to enrich the ITK library. This method, called Morphon registration algorithm, computes a dense deformation field accepting inputs from different intensity contrasts. This article presents its implementation within the Insight Toolkit. In this paper, we provide a brief description of the algorithm, a presentation of the implementation, the justification of our modified classes and the results given by the algorithm. We demonstrate the algorithm in application of different images intesity constrasts and dimensions.

Non-Rigid Volume Registration: A CUDA-based GPU implementation of the Morphon
Image registration is frequently used within the medical image domain and where methods with high performance are required. The need for high accuracy coupled with high speed is especially important for applications such as adaptive radiation therapy and image-guided surgery. During the last years, a number of significant projects have been introduced to make the computational power of GPUs ava...
متن کاملNon-rigid Registration Using Morphons
The Morphon, a non-rigid registration method is presented and applied to a number of registration applications. The algorithm takes a protoype image (or volume) and morphs it into a target image using an iterative, multi-resolution technique. The deformation process is done in three steps: displacement estimation, deformation field accumulation and deformation. The framework could be described ...
متن کاملAn ITK Implementation of the Symmetric Log-Domain Diffeomorphic Demons Algorithm
This article provides an implementation of the symmetric log-domain diffeomorphic image registration algorithm, or symmetric demons algorithm for short. It generalizes Thirion’s demons and the diffeomorphic demons algorithm. The main practical advantages of the symmetric demons with respect to the other demons variants is that is provides the inverse of the spatial transformation at no addition...
متن کاملDPML-Risk: An Efficient Algorithm for Image Registration
Targets and objects registration and tracking in a sequence of images play an important role in various areas. One of the methods in image registration is feature-based algorithm which is accomplished in two steps. The first step includes finding features of sensed and reference images. In this step, a scale space is used to reduce the sensitivity of detected features to the scale changes. Afterw...
متن کاملA Generalization of Free-Form Deformation Image Registration Within the ITK Finite Element Framework
Since the 1970’s B-splines have evolved to become the de facto standard for use in curve and surface representation. This resulted in a relatively recent proliferation of nonrigid image registration techniques based on B-splines. These techniques fall under the general Free-Form Deformation (FFD) approach in which the object to be registered is embedded within a B-spline object. The deformation...
