  Supine-Prone Prostate registration

Key Investigators

• Allen Tannenbaum, Yi Gao; Georgia Tech
• Gabor Fichtinger, Andras Lasso, Siddharth Vikal; Queen’s University
• Steve Pieper; Isomics

Objective

• Create a module for global registration of shapes via particle filtering.
• Apply the registration scheme to more medical imagery.

See project link for more details.

Approach, Plan

• A point set representation for image is provided and the image registration is performed under the particle filtering framework to achieve the global convergence.
• Through this the long translation/large rotation between two shapes can be robustly registered.

Progress

• Local ITK/C++ code available and ready to port into Slicer
