&lt;br /&gt;
=== Discussion: Registration Challenges ===&lt;br /&gt;
*soft tissue deformations during  image acquisition cause large differences in appearance&lt;br /&gt;
*the large tumor recession represents a significant pre/post difference in image content that will influence unmasked intensity-driven registration, which becomes a problem for the non-rigid portion of registration, particularly at higher DOF, because the registration will try to &amp;quot;recreate&amp;quot; the tumor area from the postRx image in order to match the content.&lt;br /&gt;
*contrast enhancement and pathology and treatment changes cause additional differences in image content&lt;br /&gt;
*the surface coils used cause strong differences in intensity inhomogeneity. &lt;br /&gt;
*we have strongly anisotropic voxel sizes with much less through-plane resolution&lt;br /&gt;
*resolution and FOV change between the two scans&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Discussion: Key Strategies ===&lt;br /&gt;
*because of the strong changes in shape and position, we break the problem down and register each breast separately. &lt;br /&gt;
*we perform a bias-field correction on both images before registration&lt;br /&gt;
*we use the Multires version of RegisterImages for an initial affine alignment&lt;br /&gt;
*the nonlinear portion is then addressed with a BSpline or DiffeomorphicDemons algorithm&lt;br /&gt;
*because accuracy is more important than speed here, we increase the sampling rate (i.e. the number of points sampled for the BSpline registration)&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
