We are interested in comparing existing registration packages to determine how registration in Slicer3 can be improved. This work focuses on examining various packages researchers are currently using for registration and comparing results on a set of examples representative of common registration tasks. Finally, we propose the development of a testbed, where registration packages can be compared and parameters suitable for a given domain (e.g. multi-modal brain registration) can be determined.
Example 1: Fixing Artifacts in DWI
The DWI data consists of 13 volumes, a b0 and 12 gradient directions. This process was conducted 3 times per patient for a total of 39 volumes. The image below shows a particular slice in all 12 gradient directions and all 3 scans where the artifacts can clearly be seen in some of the gradient directions.
The problem can be alleviated by 2D affine registration between slices of a corrupted volume with the corresponding slice from the b0 volume, in which we assume the artifact is not present.
