The role of image registration in brain mapping
Source: Image & Vision Computing Journal 2001 Jan;19:3-24.
Author: Toga AW, Thompson PM.
Abstract:
Image registration is a prerequisite to numerous imaging applications in the neurosciences. Registration is required for three dimensional reconstruction, multimodality image mappings, atlas construction and arithmetic operations such as image averaging, subtraction and correlation. Physical sectioning procedures, unlike various tomographic imaging techniques, also require additional superpositioning schemes to register serial sections. Since the mid-1980's investigators have used several approaches, with varying degrees of manual interaction, to perform image registration. These approaches use either information obtained about the shape and topology of objects in the image, or the presumed consistency in the intensity information from one slice to its immediate neighbor, or from one brain or image set to another.
