Registration of low dose bi-planar acquisitions for motion analysis

In this paper, we introduce a 2d-3d registration method for searching the motion of knee bones. We use a low dose bi-planar acquisition system that provides us with simultaneous frontal and profile radiographs in different positions, and the 3d volume reconstruction of the standing position. The purpose here is to reduce the user intervention during the motion tracking. The registration method is based on the central slice Fourier Transform theorem. Motion results with rotations and translations using synthetic data are shown.
