Objective

Perform atlas-to-subject registration of vervet head MRI as part of external collaboration with VTech.

Methods

Original workflow utilized multi-step registration using FSL FLIRT, followed by diffeomorphic demons (reference to be added).

In this development, we consider the use of [BRAINSFit] package within 3D Slicer to achieve reproducible and reliable registration workflow using 3DSlicer and FOSS-only tools.

We use the following registration pipeline: Rigid (6-DOF) -> ScaleVersorRigid (9-DOF) -> Affine (12-DOF) -> BSpline.

Data

Input images: atlas image, generated following the details presented [here], and 10 subject images.

Each vervet subject has a name! Meet our friends: Calvin, Gucci, Hugo, Issac, Louis, Marc, Oscar, Ralph, Tommy, and Valentino.

Results

For each of the 10 subjects, we show checkerboard slices in each direction (1) before registration, first row; (2) after rigid->scaleversor->affine registration, second row; and (3) after BSpline registration, third row.

Note the unsuccessful BSpline registration result for Issac.

Calvin

Gucci

Hugo

Issac

Issac is a good example of BSpline registration failure.

Ron noted, the reason might be that Issac had his mouth open, unlike most of the subjects registered successfully.

Louis

Marc

Oscar

Ralph

Tommy

Valentino
