| Description | This paper contributes to the field of image registration with the use of nonlinear transformations. Particularly, problems connected to matching MRI brain image data obtained from various subjects and with various imaging conditions are solved here. Registration is driven by local forces derived from multimodal point similarity measures which are estimated with the use of joint intensity histogram and tissue probability maps. Non-parametric transformations imitating principles of continuum mechanics are used. Results of fully automated spatial detection of anatomical abnormalities in first-episode schizophrenia based on structural MRI brain scans are presented. |
