Abstract

Voxel-based non-rigid registration algorithms have been successfully applied to a wide range of image types. However, in some cases the registration of quite different images, e.g. pre-and post-resection images, can fail because of a lack of voxel intensity correspondences. One solution is to introduce feature information into the voxel-based registration algorithms in order to incorporate higher level information about the expected deformation. We illustrate using one voxelbased registration algorithm that the incorporation of features yields considerable improvement of the registration results in such cases.
