Acquisition-to-acquisition signal intensity variations (non-standardness) are inherent in MR images. Standardization is a post processing method for correcting inter-subject intensity variations through transforming all images from the…

Intensity-based image registration approaches rely on similarity measures to guide the search for geometric correspondences with high affinity between images. The properties of the used measure are vital for the robustness and accuracy of…

One of the fundamental elements of both traditional and certain deep learning medical image registration algorithms is measuring the similarity/dissimilarity between two images. In this work, we propose an analytical solution for measuring…

We propose a semantic similarity metric for image registration. Existing metrics like euclidean distance or normalized cross-correlation focus on aligning intensity values, giving difficulties with low intensity contrast or noise. Our…

Image registration plays an important role in comparing images. It is particularly important in analyzing medical images like CT, MRI, PET, etc. to quantify different biological samples, to monitor disease progression and to fuse different…

Deep learning technologies have dramatically reshaped the field of medical image registration over the past decade. The initial developments, such as regression-based and U-Net-based networks, established the foundation for deep learning in…

Image registration has traditionally been done using two distinct approaches: learning based methods, relying on robust deep neural networks, and optimization-based methods, applying complex mathematical transformations to warp images…

Current deep-learning-based registration algorithms often exploit intensity-based similarity measures as the loss function, where dense correspondence between a pair of moving and fixed images is optimized through backpropagation during…

Understanding the uncertainty inherent in deep learning-based image registration models has been an ongoing area of research. Existing methods have been developed to quantify both transformation and appearance uncertainties related to the…

Medical image registration is a difficult problem. Not only a registration algorithm needs to capture both large and small scale image deformations, it also has to deal with global and local image intensity variations. In this paper we…

Deep neural networks give state-of-the-art accuracy for reconstructing images from few and noisy measurements, a problem arising for example in accelerated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, recent works have raised concerns that…

Many applications in image-guided surgery and therapy require fast and reliable non-linear, multi-modal image registration. Recently proposed unsupervised deep learning-based registration methods have demonstrated superior performance…

Diffusion models, while trained for image generation, have emerged as powerful foundational feature extractors for downstream tasks. We find that off-the-shelf diffusion models, trained exclusively to generate natural RGB images, can…

Unsupervised learning strategy is widely adopted by the deformable registration models due to the lack of ground truth of deformation fields. These models typically depend on the intensity-based similarity loss to obtain the learning…

Deep learning approaches to the segmentation of magnetic resonance images have shown significant promise in automating the quantitative analysis of brain images. However, a continuing challenge has been its sensitivity to the variability of…

Image registration is used in many medical image analysis applications, such as tracking the motion of tissue in cardiac images, where cardiac kinematics can be an indicator of tissue health. Registration is a challenging problem for deep…

Deep neural networks are increasingly used for pair-wise image registration. We propose to extend current learning-based image registration to allow simultaneous registration of multiple images. To achieve this, we build upon the pair-wise…

Segmenting deep brain structures from magnetic resonance images is important for patient diagnosis, surgical planning, and research. Most current state-of-the-art solutions follow a segmentation-by-registration approach, where subject MRIs…

Tracking microsctructural changes in the developing brain relies on accurate inter-subject image registration. However, most methods rely on either structural or diffusion data to learn the spatial correspondences between two or more…
