- Description
- To implement a state-of-the art algorithm for accurate registration of MRI brain scans. The package was designed to be portable across Unix platforms and to run on low-cost PC workstations. The algorithm computes a 3D displacement field for warping an MRI image volume to a template image volume. It hierarchically divides the template into blocks of voxels that are locally shifted in order to maximize one of several voxel similarity measures (subject to a constraint enforcing the spatial smoothness of the displacement field). The software package was designed to complement the AIR registration algorithm and includes routines for volume resampling and for combining a computed warp displacement field with an initial 12-parameter affine transformation (.air file); a visualization tool (running under Matlab 5) is also included. The package can also to be used to align PET and fMRI volumes that are accompanied by structural MRI volumes.
