General Multimodal Elastic Registration Based on Mutual Information
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent studies indicate that maximizing the mutual information of the joint histogram of two images is an accurate and robust way to rigidly register two monoor multimodal images. Using mutual information for registration directly in a local manner is often not admissible owing to the weakened statistical power of the local histogram compared to a global one. We propose to use a global joint histogram based on optimized mutual information combined with a local registration measure to enable local elastic registration.

Hybrid Spline-Based Multimodal Registration Using a Local Measure for Mutual Information
We introduce a new hybrid approach for spline-based elastic registration of multimodal medical images. The approach uses point landmarks as well as intensity information based on local analytic measures for mutual information. The intensity similarity metrics are computationally efficient and can be optimized independently for each voxel. We have successfully applied our approach to synthetic i...
متن کاملA 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...

متن کاملNormalized Measures of Mutual Information with General Definitions of Entropy for Multimodal Image Registration
Mutual information (MI) was introduced for use in multimodal image registration over a decade ago [1,2,3,4]. The MI between two images is based on their marginal and joint/conditional entropies. The most common versions of entropy used to compute MI are the Shannon and differential entropies; however, many other definitions of entropy have been proposed as competitors. In this article, we show ...
متن کاملA Registration Method for Multimodal Medical Images Using Contours Mutual Information
In recent years, mutual information has developed as a popular image registration measure especially in multimodality image registration. For different modality medical images, the contour of tissues or organs is similarity. In this paper, an effective new registration method of the multimodal medical images based on the contour mutual information is proposed. Firstly, get the contour through v...
