چکیده

This paper gives a review of the methods that we have developed over the last few years to register 2D/3D images and image sequences. Initially, we will introduce a feature-based method, which will be followed up by a summary of the intensity-based methods. Then we will present some applications of our methods using biomedical images with more automated image analysis tasks. The main applications are related to plantar pressure images and SPECT brain images, including both static images and image sequences.

An Automated MR Image Segmentation System Using Multi-layer Perceptron Neural Network

Background: Brain tissue segmentation for delineation of 3D anatomical structures from magnetic resonance (MR) images can be used for neuro-degenerative disorders, characterizing morphological differences between subjects based on volumetric analysis of gray matter (GM), white matter (WM) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), but only if the obtained segmentation results are correct. Due to image arti...

A Novel Subsampling Method for 3D Multimodality Medical Image Registration Based on Mutual Information

Mutual information (MI) is a widely used similarity metric for multimodality image registration. However, it involves an extremely high computational time especially when it is applied to volume images. Moreover, its robustness is affected by existence of local maxima. The multi-resolution pyramid approaches have been proposed to speed up the registration process and increase the accuracy of th...
