Notes and Summary
Introduction and notes by Guido Gerig.
Detailed presentation by Stephen Aylward w.r.t. the development of a registration toolkit to Slicer-3 (see status slides above), developed by the team Aylward/Ibanez/Turek.
A new 3D registration kit with rigid, affine and b-spline transformations is added to Slicer-3. Image match metrics include MattesMI (mutual information), normalized correlation and mean squared error, and three interpolators are available (linear, bspline, windowed sinc). A user has the choice of 3 optimization methods (gradient, multi-resolution with 3 levels, and 1+1 evolutionary followed by gradient).
The algorithm performs a series of steps from initial alignment over rigid, affine to BSpline. The image is finally transformed by cascading the set of transformations into one transformation step using the interpolation mode of choice.
Stephen Aylward showed a demonstration of a nonlinear registration of a subject-to-atlas matching with a case that presented difficulties using previously available registration techniques.
The BSpline mode uses a user-defined sampling of space. The current implementation does not yet allow for very dense sampling, e.g. every 2nd mm, as ultimately required for EMS to segment brain substructures at the finest resolution level. Further optimization of memory management and reducing #operations were discussed (Polina Golland's group and engineering core) and these Core-1 and Core-2 developers will get together to discuss options.
