Slicer Registration Use Case Exampe #6: Breast MRI Treatment Assessment
Objective / Background
We seek to align the post-treatment (PostRx) scan with the pre-treatment scan to compare local effects.
Keywords
MRI, breast cancer, intra-subject, treatment assessment, change detection, non-rigid registration
Input Data
- reference/fixed : T1 SPGR , 0.9375 x 0.9375 x 1.4 mm voxel size, axial, RAS orientation.
- moving: T1 SPGR , 0.9375 x 0.9375 x 1.2 mm voxel size, sagittal, RAS orientation.

Discussion: Registration Challenges
- soft tissue deformations during image acquisition cause large differences in appearance
- contrast enhancement and pathology and treatment changes cause additional differences in image content
- the surface coils used cause strong differences in intensity inhomogeneity.
- resolution and FOV change between the two scans
Discussion: Key Strategies
- because of the strong changes in shape and position, we break the problem down and register each breast separately.
- we perform a bias-field correction on both images before registration
- we use the Multires version of RegisterImages for an initial affine alignment
- the nonlinear portion is then addressed with a BSpline or DiffeomorphicDemons algorithm
- because accuracy is more important than speed here, we increase the sampling rate (i.e. the number of points sampled for the BSpline registration)
