Evaluation of a new 3D/2D registration criterion for liver radio-frequencies guided by augmented reality

TL;DR: To superimpose a 3D model of the liver, its vessels and tumors (reconstructed from CT images) on external video images of the patient for hepatic surgery guidance, a new Maximum Likelihood approach is designed to account for this existing noise.
Book ChapterDOI

Rigid and affine registration of smooth surfaces using differential properties

TL;DR: This paper shows how to efficiently use curvatures to superpose principal frame at possible corresponding points in order to find the needed rough estimate of the displacement and introduces differential informations on points to extend this algorithm to look for an affine transformation between two surfaces.

Improved EM-Based Tissue Segmentation and Partial Volume Effect Quantification in Multi-sequence Brain MRI

TL;DR: This study shows that ignoring vessel segmentation when handling partial volume effect can also lead to false results, more specifically to an over-estimation of the CSF variance in the intensity space and proposes a more versatile method to improve tissue classification.

Unsupervised Probabilistic Deformation Modeling for Robust Diffeomorphic Registration

TL;DR: In this article, a deformable registration algorithm based on unsupervised learning of a low-dimensional probabilistic parameterization of deformations is proposed, which enables to also generate normal or pathological deformations of any new image based on the latent space.
