چکیده

In this paper a novel Large Deformation Diffeomorphic Metric Mapping (LDDMM) scheme is presented which has significantly lower computational and memory demands than standard LDDMM but achieves the same accuracy. We exploit the smoothness of velocities and transformations by using a coarser discretization compared to the image resolution. This reduces required memory and accelerates numerical optimization as well as solution of transport equations. Accuracy is essentially unchanged as the mismatch of transformed moving and fixed image is incorporated into the model at high resolution. Reductions in memory consumption and runtime are demonstrated for registration of lung CT images. State-of-the-art accuracy is shown for the challenging DIR-Lab chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) lung CT data sets obtaining a mean landmark distance after registration of 1.03 mm and the best average results so far.

A Multi-scale Kernel Bundle for LDDMM: Towards Sparse Deformation Description across Space and Scales

The Large Deformation Diffeomorphic Metric Mapping framework constitutes a widely used and mathematically well-founded setup for registration in medical imaging. At its heart lies the notion of the regularization kernel, and the choice of kernel greatly affects the results of registrations. This paper presents an extension of the LDDMM framework allowing multiple kernels at multiple scales to b...
