Purpose: The primary objective of this study is to perform a blinded evaluation of a group of
retrospective image registration techniques using as a gold standard a prospective, marker-…

Grey value correlation is generally considered not to be applicable to matching of images of
different modalities. In this paper we will demonstrate that, with a simple preprocessing step …

All retrospective image registration methods have attached to them some intrinsic estimate of
registration error. However, this estimate of accuracy may not always be a good indicator of …

A computer simulation of stereotactic breast biopsy was developed that paralleled the geometric
configuration of a currently available breast biopsy system. This model was developed …

The radio frequency ablation segmentation tool (RFAST) is a software application
developed using the National Institutes of Health's medical image processing analysis and …

We present a method to correct the geometric distortion caused by field inhomogeneity in
MR images of patients wearing MR‐compatible Stereotaxic frames. Our previously published …

This paper presents a new reference data set and associated quantification methodology to
asses the accuracy of registration of computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic‐…

This paper presents a versatile system for registering and visualizing computed tomography
and magnetic resonance images. The system utilizes a semi-automatic, surface-based …

Node volume analysis is very important medically. An automatic method of segmenting the
node in spiral CT x-ray images is needed to produce accurate, consistent, and efficient …

We created a virtual endoscopy system, called FreeFlight, that interactively generates three-dimensional
endoscopic images of human anatomy using spiral CT data. The software is …
