Fast volumetric registration method for tumor follow-up in pulmonary CT exams

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:An oncological patient may go through several tomographic acquisitions during a period of time, needing an appropriate registration. We propose an automatic volumetric intrapatient registration method for tumor follow-up in pulmonary CT exams. The performance of our method is evaluated and compared with other registration methods based on optimization techniques. We also compared the metrics behavior to inspect which metric is more sensitive to changes due to the presence of lung tumors.
