Area of Science:

  • Medical image analysis
  • Computational anatomy
  • Image registration

Background:

  • Voxel-based non-rigid image registration aligns images by deforming a source to a target space.
  • Accurate registration relies on interpolating source image intensities for transformed voxels.
  • Interpolation choices influence the similarity measure and registration outcome.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare registration artefacts from different interpolators in voxel-based non-rigid registration.
  • To investigate the relationship between these artefacts, image noise, and global transformation error.
  • To demonstrate how registration artefacts can lead to inaccurate volume change estimations.

Main Methods:

  • Voxel-based non-rigid image registration was performed using various interpolators.

Related Experiment Videos

  • A per-voxel similarity gradient was computed to characterize registration artefacts.
  • The resulting vector fields were analyzed in relation to image noise and global error.

    • Main Results:

    • Different interpolators produced distinct extents and types of artefactual displacements.
    • Registration artefacts were found to correlate with image noise and global transformation errors.
    • Spurious volume changes were observed in image pairs lacking actual volume change due to artefacts.

    Conclusions:

    • Interpolator choice significantly affects registration artefact generation in non-rigid image registration.
    • Understanding and quantifying these artefacts is crucial for accurate medical image analysis.
    • Artefactual displacements can compromise the reliability of volume change measurements.
